I have a variable like
What I want to do here is that If a find # before any entry, remove the entire string between # and first | (including # and |). SO the resulting string would be like -
With the help of this forum itself, I found the solution as below -
But I am not able to exactly understand how above is working. My initial understanding was that #[^|]*| deletes all entries encapsulated between # and first pipe except the ones encapsulated between two pipes but that doesn't seem to explain above transalation. I have played a good amount with sed but this one seems to be tough to understand.
Can anybody please help understand the functioning of above sed trick ?
Thanks

Hello,
Is there a simpler way to remove special characters (color codes) from each lines in a log file?
I use sed like in the example below but I think there should be a more simple way to achieve the same result:
$ cat -vet file1
^, , , ,
Maybe to convert the file somehow?

locale::codes::langvar
Locale::Codes::LangVar(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Locale::Codes::LangVar(3)NAME
Locale::Codes::LangVar - standard codes for language variation identification
SYNOPSIS
use Locale::Codes::LangVar;
$lvar = code2langvar('acm'); # $lvar gets 'Mesopotamian Arabic'
$code = langvar2code('Mesopotamian Arabic'); # $code gets 'acm'
@codes = all_langvar_codes();
@names = all_langvar_names();
DESCRIPTION
The "Locale::Codes::LangVar" module provides access to standard codes used for identifying language variations, such as those as defined in
the IANA language registry.
Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default IANA language
registry codes will be used.
SUPPORTED CODE SETS
There are several different code sets you can use for identifying language variations. A code set may be specified using either a name, or
a constant that is automatically exported by this module.
For example, the two are equivalent:
$lvar = code2langvar('arevela','alpha');
$lvar = code2langvar('arevela',LOCALE_LANGVAR_ALPHA);
The codesets currently supported are:
alpha
This is the set of alphanumeric codes from the IANA language registry, such as 'arevela' for Eastern Armenian.
This code set is identified with the symbol "LOCALE_LANGVAR_ALPHA".
This is the default code set.
ROUTINES
code2langvar ( CODE [,CODESET] )
langvar2code ( NAME [,CODESET] )
langvar_code2code ( CODE ,CODESET ,CODESET2 )
all_langvar_codes ( [CODESET] )
all_langvar_names ( [CODESET] )
Locale::Codes::LangVar::rename_langvar ( CODE ,NEW_NAME [,CODESET] )
Locale::Codes::LangVar::add_langvar ( CODE ,NAME [,CODESET] )
Locale::Codes::LangVar::delete_langvar ( CODE [,CODESET] )
Locale::Codes::LangVar::add_langvar_alias ( NAME ,NEW_NAME )
Locale::Codes::LangVar::delete_langvar_alias ( NAME )
Locale::Codes::LangVar::rename_langvar_code ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] )
Locale::Codes::LangVar::add_langvar_code_alias ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] )
Locale::Codes::LangVar::delete_langvar_code_alias ( CODE [,CODESET] )
These routines are all documented in the Locale::Codes::API man page.
