Is there a .NET port of the SED stream editor

Question

Is there a .NET port of the SED stream editor? Ideally it would be open source, but at this stage I'm not ruling anything out.

I have googled for this already without any obvious hits, so the secondary question here is: How hard would it be to create one?

I assume the sources for SED are in C. If the answer to my primary question is No, I would appreciate pointers/strategies for porting such a project to C#.

Answer 1

Use a mingw build including sed from msys, build a dll, then call the dll from C#.

The gnuwin32 project includes a sed port and a minised.
