Oh, sorry, I should have mentioned, I'm providing two regexes, and the=20
script is to replace a line that matches one regex with a line that=20
matches the other.

I.E.
line one
line two
line three

a=3D/one/
b=3D/three/

And the script produces:
line three
line two
line one

I intend on passing it robust enough regexes that they only match a=20
single line (i.e. not /line/).
