Try
Code:
sed 's/ //g;s/:/\n/g;s/sring=//' file
aru
muth
ram
pak

This is GNU sed. Other seds might not like the \n; use an adequate <newline> representation, then.

Code:
string='aryn:muth:ram'
sed 's/ //g;s/:/\n/g;s/string=//' file

Is this correct. I am writing a shell script for the above program it should print in every line.

hi ravinder,
i have multiple fields to be printed in the line using the delimieter :.

I could see you have mentioned only for 3-5 fields.

WHAT do you want? Do you have a line of text (like in post#1) to be analyzed, or the contents of a string (as in post#4), or a script file with variable assignments, including spaces, or not, or WHAT?

Please be way more precise and careful with your specifications!
