Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Convert csv to pipe delimited except the ones in double quotes Post 302682889 by elixir_sinari on Tuesday 7th of August 2012 03:37:44 AM

As you might have realised, the input (and also the output) record separator is a ". So, all odd-numbered records (NR%2) are outside the double-quotes "realm" and all the , within these records need to be replaced with |. The other records do not need to be bothered about. The 1 at the end of the script prints all the records irrespective of the substitution.
