sed

Hello,

I am writing a shell script, (kshell), and I am using sed.

sed '_<head></head>_<head>Something</head>_' > $file

This works fine, and it replaces the text. The problem is that I want
to insert a java script , but its a big chunk, and the method above
doesnt work when it exceeds one line. It gives me "unterminated
command" , but I explicitly checked the separators, and the single
quotes. Any small example on how to use sed for big paragraphs. I'd
also appreciate an example on how to use sed to insert/append strings.

Thanks.
