Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Can't remove spaces with sed when calling it from sh -c Post 302928592 by MadeInGermany on Saturday 13th of December 2014 03:31:25 AM

If you really would need a ' within a ' ' string then you need to end the string with ' then follow an escaped ' then another ' to begin a second string.
Code:
echo "some text with spaces" | sh -c 'sed -e '\''s/ //g'\'
