Hi All,
How to Replace the delimiter for a particular field. I have used awk to replace the field values based on the position, but I tried to remove/replace delimiters with space on particular positions.
I tried tr command with combination of awk not sure if this is the correct way, but I am not getting the required output. Is there any other way we can achieve this.
I want to replace the second and fourth pipe delimiter with space

Do all input lines have the same number of pipe delimiters?
