Replace file content after checking value
Our system is receiving one feed from the third party.
One of the field in the flat file is ID which id from position 19 to 27. In some cases this ID is coming as 9 zeros (000000000) or 1 right padded zero. ( 0)
For these specific records I want to replace fthis field with blank spaces. ( 9 blank spaces) . The simple replace is simple but I am not able to figure out that how will I compare the field first and then replace.
Check the field and if it is as 9 zeros (000000000) or 1 right padded zero.
( 0) then replace with 9 blanks.
Kindly note that for most of the cases the field is having the correct value , only few hundreds records have this problem in the file.

mdbfontset
mdbFontset(5) The m17n Library mdbFontset(5)
NAME
mdbFontset - Fontset
DESCRIPTION
The m17n library loads a fontset definition from the m17n database by the tags <fontset, FONTSET-NAME>. The plist format of the data is as
follows:
FONTSET ::= PER-SCRIPT * PER-CHARSET * FALLBACK *
PER-SCRIPT ::= '(' SCRIPT PER-LANGUAGE + ')'
PER-LANGUAGE ::= '(' LANGUAGE FONT-SPEC-ELEMENT + ')'
PER-CHARSET ::= '(' CHARSET FONT-SPEC-ELEMENT + ')'
FALLBACK ::= FONT-SPEC-ELEMENT
FONT-SPEC-ELEMENT ::= '(' FONT-SPEC [ FLT-NAME ] ')'
FONT-SPEC ::=
'(' [ FOUNDRY FAMILY
[ WEIGHT [ STYLE [ STRETCH [ ADSTYLE ]]]]]
REGISTRY
[ OTF-SPEC ] [ LANG-SPEC ] ')'
SCRIPT is a symbol of script name (e.g. latin, han) or nil. LANGUAGE is a two-letter symbol of language name code defined by ISO 639 (e.g.
ja, zh) or nil.
FONT-SPEC is to specify properties of a font. FOUNDRY to REGISTRY are symbols corresponding to Mfoundry to Mregistry property of a font.
See m17nFont for the meaning of each property.
OTF-SPEC is a symbol specifyng the required OTF features. The symbol name has the following syntax.
OTF-SPEC-NAME ::= ':otf=' SCRIPT LANGSYS ? GSUB-FEATURES ? GPOS-FEATURES ?
SCRIPT ::= SYMBOL
LANGSYS ::= '/' SYMBOL
GSUB-FEATURES ::= '=' FEATURE-LIST ?
GPOS-FEATURES ::= '+' FEATURE-LIST ?
FEATURE-LIST ::= '~' ? FEATURE ( ',' '~' ? FEATURE ',' )
Here, FEATURE is a four-letter Open Type feature.
LANG-SPEC is a symbol specifying the required language support. The symbol name has the following syntax.
LANG-SPEC-NAME ::= ':lang=' LANG
Here, LANG is a two or three-letter ISO-639 language code.
FLT-NAME is a name of Font Layout Table (Font Layout Table).
EXAMPLE
This is an example of PER_SCRIPT.
(han
(ja
((jisx0208.1983-0)))
(zh
((gb2312.1980-0)))
(nil
((big5-0))))
It instructs the font selector to use a font of registry 'jisx0208.1983-0' for a 'han' character (i.e. a character whose Mscript property
is 'han') if the character has Mlanguage text property 'ja' in an M-text and the character is in the repertories of such fonts. Otherwise,
try a font of registry 'gb2312.1980-0' or 'big5-0'. If that 'han' character does not have Mlanguage text property, try all three fonts.
See the function mdraw_text() for the detail of how a font is selected.
