sd - Intuitive Find & Replace Utility

The sd module is a modern alternative to sed, focusing on substitution with a more readable syntax. It integrates with FZF for real-time previews of text changes and works without local installation via x-cmd pkg.

When to Activate

• When the user wants a more intuitive syntax for text replacement.
• When needing interactive previews of search and replace effects.
• When performing fast string-based replacements without complex sed escaping.

Core Principles & Rules

• Readability: Prioritize sd over sed for tasks that only require straightforward substitution.
• Safety: Supports --preview to output results to stdout without touching the file.
• Interactive App: Use --fzfapp for visual confirmation of changes.
