cmdxray now decodes the cryptic one-liners people paste most:

  • sed scripts: s/foo/bar/gsubstitute: replace "foo" with "bar" — every match on the line; alternate delimiters (s|a|b|), y/abc/xyz/ transliterate, /re/p, 3d, case-insensitive/print/Nth flags, and leading addresses.
  • awk programs: 'NR>1 {print $2,$3}' → reports the columns used, NR/NF, and /regex/ line patterns.

Previously these were glossed as "an argument passed to the command". New src/scripts.ts + 13 tests (104 total). npm i -g cmdxray or npx cmdxray 'sed -i "s/a/b/g" f'.
