What Georg tries to tell you here in a geeky [1] way is that this is a way to 
specify search&replace procedures based on a quite powerful system called 
regular expressions [2].

The s/dri\.conf/drirc/g quoted earlier basically boils down to

"Search for dri.conf and replace with drirc everwhere it is encountered in the 
input"

Cheers,
Kevin

actually a geek and knows stuff ;)
