How do I run this sed script on Linux?

I tried placing the code in a file named as386.sed and then executing the following command. The input to the program is in a file called input_file.

Command:
sed -i -f as386.sed input_file

When I run this is tells me, sed: file as386.sed line 1: unknown command: '*'

If I put at the top of that file "#!/bin/bash" and run the command it tells me, sed: file as386.sed line 3: extra characters after command.

A link to the sed script is here:

Thank you,

delete that line it's not part of the script, the first lines are:

#\
# @(#)as386.sed1.1 - 86/11/17\
#\

similalrly the last lines are:

G
s/\n//
s/;/\//
