Sed command not working
Hi,
I have a test file as follows:
1G102119 ^ AA1179291 ^ 06oct2006 09:50:35^ 73.4^ 2^ 13^ 0^ 1493
1G102119 ^ AA1179291 ^ 06oct2006 09:49:45^ 73.4^ 2^ 13^ 0^ 1493
1G102119 ^ AA1179291 ^ 06oct2006 09:48:58^ 73.4^ 2^ 17^ 0^ 2
1G102119 ^ AA1179291 ^ 06oct2006 09:48:58^ 73.4^ 2^ 17^ 0^ 21
I am striping of blank spaces using the following sed command.
cat test | sed -e 's/ *^/^/g' | sed -e 's/\^ */^/g' | sed -e 's/ *$//g' | sed -e 's/\.^/^/g' | sed -e 's/\^.$/^/g' > test.new
I am getting the results as follows:
1G102119^AA1179291^06oct2006 09:50:35^73.4^2^13^0^1493
1G102119^AA1179291^06oct2006 09:49:45^73.4^2^13^0^1493
1G102119^AA1179291^06oct2006 09:48:58^73.4^2^17^0^
1G102119^AA1179291^06oct2006 09:48:58^73.4^2^17^0^21
But if you notice, the third record is having a value missed at the end. The value 2 is missing.
What is wrong with the script.
Thanks.
