line 1 (one)
line 2 (two)
build=test
line 3 (three)

[root@vcswin3 ~]# sed -r 's/build=\w+/build=new_build/' test
line 1 (one)
line 2 (two)
build=new_build
line 3 (three)

I want execute the same above sed command in the AIX, but its throwing error like sed -r is illegal object. so please anybody tell me what is the related command in the AIX. so that i'll execute my issue in the AIX.

No MAN pages in AIX?

Here is a man page for AIX sed. Apparently, there is no -r parameter.

Look at the examples for how to do the substitution.
