Splitting the spring apart with IFS="~" would delete all the ~'s and remember where they belonged. IFS="" ; echo "$*" will put the string back together with no ~'s at all. So you save and shift away the first parameter, then mash the rest together with $*, and put them together with ~ in the middle.

Suppose you have a line like this:

The line should be converted like this:
cn=user.blr,ou=blr.india,o=comapny
Was wondering how to do that using shell script.
Please use tags where appropriate, thank you (4 Replies)
Hi Gurus,
I did an exhaustive search for finding the script using "sed" to exclude the first line of file during find and replace.
The first line in my file is the header names.
