Vi - insert a tab between words?
I have several lines in a file that I want to replace a space with a tab.
For example:
111047 [tab] Julie Jones
email@email.com
111047 [tab] Julie Jones [tab]
email@email.com
I want to replace the space after the word "jones" with a tab.
How do I achieve that in Vi?
Please assist.
Thanks!
