Because it doesn't work, at least on my system (though, I confess I don't quite understand the results, only the second one makes sense to me): $ echo "hello my bold friend" |sed 's/bold/\033[1mbold\033[0m/g' hello my bold33[1mboldbold33[0m friend $ echo "hello my bold friend" |sed 's/bold/\\033[1mbold\\033[0m/g' hello my \033[1mbold\033[0m friend Or with double quotes: $ echo "hello my bold friend" |sed "s/bold/\\033[1mbold\\033[0m/g" hello my bold33[1mboldbold33[0m friend $ echo "hello my bold friend" |sed "s/bold/\033[1mbold\033[0m/g" hello my bold33[1mboldbold33[0m friend Odd. -- Derek D.
