[pass] Stripping .gpg not working

[Lenz Weber]

Hi again,
I might have found a solution.

I just looked at the man pages for sed on FreeBSD (which I believe is
closer to OSX) and it indeed seems to have a different kind of regular
expression, that by default does not support | (OR)

So it has to be called with -E for extended regex
The Regex needs a quick rewrite after that (see last paragraph of the
Description section on
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=re_format&sektion=7&apropos=0&manpath=FreeBSD+10.1-RELEASE)
basically it's \(->(, \)->), \{->{, \}->}, {0,1} can be written as ? -
it handles escaping differently.


So finally it should look like this:

tree -C -l --noreport "$PREFIX/$path" | tail -n +2 | sed -E
's/\.gpg(\x1B\[[0-9]+m)?( ->|$)/\1\2/g'

I just tested it with cygwin's sed, using the -r flag and from the
Cygwin (which uses the FSF sed I believe most Linuxes use, too) side,
this seems to work.

If the above command works with your Mac, too, we just need to
differentiate between the versions of sed and switch between the -E and
-r switch.

Regards,
Lenz

PS: another way would be to avoid the | altogether but I don't really
see how to do that if we don't want to create a mega-regex or execute
sed twice with slightly different regexes
