Special character in my file
I have a special character in my file. It displays as a '#' sign but when I do this command I do not find the line.
fgrep 'G#ant' file1
I want to replace the special character with another value but I need to know what character it really is. Any ideas on how to replace this '#' value with a space. I tried
sed 's/G#ant/G ANT/g' file1> file2
but it does not work.
thanks for any help.
