Seperating the words of a line
The line is like this
+abc+def+mgh+ddsdsd+sa
i.e. words seperated by +. There is a plus in the beginning.

i want to conver this line to
abc, def, mgh, ddsdsd, sa

please provide the logic in the form of a shell script


Thanks in advance

Skyineyes,
Do not break the rules duplicating posts:
https://www.unix.com/shell-programmin...om-a-line.html
You will just make it more difficult for you to find a solution.
Give time to the members to work on the issue.

Re:
Sincere Appologies.

I felt that the earlier heading wasn't appropriate.

Not a problem.
Here is your solution:
Code:
sed 's/+//;s/+/,/g' input_file

sed
You can try:

sed 's/+/,/g' filename | sed '1s/,//'

Hi

i am facing few problems with the above. let me rephrase the question

VALUE="+ABC+DEF+FGDh+YU+ghs+V"

i want VALUE to be like this

VALUE=" ABC, DEF, FGDH, YU, ghs, V "

i.e '+' to be replaced by ",<space>" except beginning. The initial + is to be replaced by blank.

Thanks

Just a modification to this is required

The initial string is like this
+abc+def+ghj+jkl+asd

Please note the + in the beginning also. i am having the whole string in a variable called VALUE and i want the new value of the varaiable to be
abc, def, ghj, jkl, asd

i.e removing starting + and repacing with ,<space> elsewhere with new string to be placed in the same varaiable.


Thanks
