I would like to find an undetermined number of spaces and shorten them to one space. I am running Debian in mksh. Script running in #!/bin/sh. Sorry to not include all code. The program is too big and involves an online file... too much hassle to solve a simple issue.
Ex.,
I start with (pretend the periods are spaces),
"This . . . . sentence has . . . . . . an undetermined . . number of . spaces between . . . . . . each word."
The result would be:
"This sentence has an undetermined number of spaces."
What I have so far is working but extremely poor code:
I've tried several combinations to no effect. I've been reading up on awk in a tutorial, but so far no mention of this situation.
I need to grep for pattern "enable_cal = true".The problem is that different file has different no of spaces in that string.
for eg
one file will have "enable_cal <space><space><space>=true"
next file will have "enable_cal= <space><space>true"
other one will have... (5 Replies)
