Can you remove a line with sd?

[EmilSodergren]

Is it possible to remove lines with sd? You could of course "replace line with empty" but that leaves unwanted empty blank lines. With sed you write sed -i '/pattern to match/d' ./infile. Is there something similar in sd? I think that functionality is the only thing that still keeps sed in my toolbox... :smile:

Just use \n in your pattern?

sd 'foo\n' ''

As @jorunfa mentioned you just need to include the newline in the pattern. If you want to support text that uses \r\n as well then you can use \r?\n
