Not able to remove special character ^I in file in Linux system
Hi All,
We are fetching data from database and writing a file in linux system.
Where in space between the data in one of the columns get converted into ^I which is creating an issue.
Column data.
There should be 5 spaces in between(710060 123CH)
this space is getting converted like below when we open the file using cat -vet filename command.
To remove this special character, i used below command.
.
Above command is removing special char ^I but space between the data in the column is more than 5 as ^I is occurring at different positions.
could some one please guide me,how else the special char can be removed by retaining 5 spaces in between the data 710060 123CH

IRSEND(1) User Commands IRSEND(1)NAME
irsend - basic LIRC program to send infra-red commands
SYNOPSIS
irsend [options] DIRECTIVE REMOTE CODE [CODE...]
DESCRIPTION
Asks the lircd daemon to send one or more CIR (Consumer Infra-Red) commands. This is intended for remote control of electronic devices such
as TV boxes, HiFi sets, etc.
DIRECTIVE can be:
SEND_ONCE - send CODE [CODE ...] once
SEND_START - start repeating CODE
SEND_STOP - stop repeating CODE
LIST - list configured remote items
SET_TRANSMITTERS - set transmitters NUM [NUM ...]
SIMULATE - simulate IR event
REMOTE is the name of a remote, as described in the lircd configuration file.
CODE is the name of a remote control key of REMOTE, as it appears in the lircd configuration file.
NUM is the transmitter number of the hardware device.
For the LIST DIRECTIVE, REMOTE and/or CODE can be empty:
LIST "" "" - list all configured remote names
LIST REMOTE "" - list all codes of REMOTE
LIST REMOTE CODE - list only CODE of REMOTE
The SIMULATE command only works if it has been explicitly enabled in lircd.
