I see I have much to learn about sed, beyond the obvious of combining
steps I missed.  Thanks; that will help clean up another tidbit I've
done to check the path for multiple copies of cygwin1.dll.

Apparently, I have much to learn about Thunderbird, too, as I thought I
had it configured to wrap lines for me at 72 characters, which my prior
post obviously didn't.
