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#.

Yes - The idea is to integrate a sed processor into a server pipeline where everything else is .NET assemblies. — Dominic Cronin, Nov 23 '11 at 19:01
@frankhommers As it was clear that no existing port was to be found, I didn't follow this direction any further. — Dominic Cronin, Apr 03 '17 at 06:02

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.

Thanks Paul. I think it's clear that no-one knows of any existing ports. What you have proposed looks like a viable strategy. – Dominic Cronin Feb 16 '12 at 11:43
