Replacing all but the first and last double quote in a line with a single quote with awk
From:
Is there an easy syntax I'm overlooking? There will always be an odd number of quotes (0,2,4,6,etc). If present the first quote will follow a comma and if present the final quote will precede a LF.
Prior to this, I have replaced any LF (but not CR+LF) with |, than replaced any CR+LF with LF and replaced any , in the rightmst field with ; (by using a loop to look for more csv columns and OFS=;). I was not aware of the "" mean " thing in the .csv standard however.
