Old version of vgrind no longer working

[Damian McGuckin]

I have a version of vgrind with the line

        echo "$i" | sed -e 's%[[./*$^\\]%\\&%g' -e 's%.*%/^&:/d%'

It has worked for a gazillion years - 20+.

Upon upgrading to CentoS 7.9, I suddently find that I get an error

        sed: -e expression #1, char 18: unterminated `s' command

Can anybody see the problem please?

The shell script is different to that in heirloon vgrind.

Stay safe - Damian
