Display Editing big file in UNIX
Hi Guys,
I have a hugefile. I have requirement to change Indicator from "T" to "P" or from "P" to "T" which comes in header itself. I could not open either in any of editors or in UNIX command line using vi as file size > 3GB

Please suggest a solution as how to achieve it through script or any single line commands.

Note: This indicator comes in ISA 15 segment.

Example:

Code:
ISA*00* *00* *08*92 *08*123*030627*1304*U*00*00*0*P*>~


I have change it to

Code:
ISA*00* *00* *08*92 *08*123*030627*1304*U*00*00*0*T*>~
