The latest Acme out of Bell Labs has a new builtin called Edit
which can take sam-style commands. Very useful, since you don't
have to worry about quoting stuff before it gets sent to a program
which uses a pipeline.
See http://plan9.bell-labs.com/magic/man2html/1/sam for an example of
the things sam's structured regular expressions offer.
