Top Forums UNIX for Beginners Questions & Answers sed command to replace consecutive double quotes Post 303007894 by Don Cragun on Thursday 23rd of November 2017 07:15:32 AM

The sample data you provided in post #1 shows the vertical bar character as a field terminator; not a field separator (since there is no data after the last vertical bar on a line). To produce the output you requested with sed, one could try:
Code:
sed 's/"//g
s/^/"/
s/|/"|"/g
s/"$//' filename
