I was testing some and from this string try to remove all ", but not \"
result requested: The quick brown fox jumps, over the 'lazy \"dog\"'
I have seen a working solution for sed, but I like awk
This code seem to work, but for some reason it does remove a blank space after the fox, why?
As far as I understand this means not \ and ", so why is the space gone?
EDIT:
I found why not \ can is any characters but not \, so space is gone and the s in jumps
Any Idea on how to fix this in awk? gensub should work, but not very portable.
