Help with transpose data content

Hi,

Below is my input file:
Code:
c116_g1_i1 -,-,-,+
c118_g2_i1 +,+
c118_g3_i1 +
c120_g1_i1 +,+,+,+
.
.

Desired Output File
Code:
c116_g1_i1 -
c116_g1_i1 -
c116_g1_i1 -
c116_g1_i1 +
c118_g2_i1 +
c118_g2_i1 +
c118_g3_i1 +
c120_g1_i1 +
c120_g1_i1 +
c120_g1_i1 +
c120_g1_i1 +
.
.

I just wanna to replace the "," in column 2 become a new line and repeat column 1 content at the same time.

Thanks for any advice.

Hello perl_beginner,

Could you please try following.
Code:
awk '{gsub(/\,/," ",$0);for(i=2;i<=NF;i++){print $1 OFS $i}}'  Input_file

Output will be as follows.
Code:
c116_g1_i1 -
c116_g1_i1 -
c116_g1_i1 -
c116_g1_i1 +
c118_g2_i1 +
c118_g2_i1 +
c118_g3_i1 +
c120_g1_i1 +
c120_g1_i1 +
c120_g1_i1 +
c120_g1_i1 +

Thanks,
R. Singh

You could also try:
Code:
awk -F'[ ,]' '{for(i = 2; i <= NF; i++) print $1, $i}' file
