How to replace only \n( line seperator ) not Data \n?
Unix File is pipe delimited with 17 fields. We may get extra pipes in data also.
We may get \n char (1 or more \n in one field or multi fileds) in data in any field.
Need to replace \n true ( line separator) with 'space and bell char space' chars (' \a ') Not data \n.
