Hi,
You can achieve this using sed,
cat filename | sed 's/ ,/,/g' | sed 's/, /,/g' | sed 's/ $//g'
filename is the input file name.
Thanks
Raghuram

HISTORY
The GNU shtool subst command was originally written by Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com> in 2001 for GNU shtool. It was prompted
by the need to have a uniform and convenient patching frontend to sed(1) operations in the OpenPKG package specifications.
