I'm pretty confident that SEDCMD uses regular expressions for substitutions, so D seems like a strong option.

I feel like I read that SEDCMD works on Windows, but I might be mixing it up with another command.

I remember something about SEDCMD being defined in props.conf, but I can't recall if it can also be in transforms.conf.

I think SEDCMD is related to search and replace, but I'm not sure if it uses the same syntax as the replace command.
