Hello..
I have a text file. I want to remove all the blank spaces(except tab) from the file..
I tried using sed command as shown below
But the problem with the above command is that it also eliminates 'tab' which is between the columns..
For example if the contents of the file are
Then if I use the above command, I get the following output
Observe that a tab between the 2nd and the 3rd column has been converted to space!!
I really don't want to remove tabs!
Can anyone help me out??
Thanks in advance.
