This would convert a csv file to a flat file. For example, here is the data for a csv file: 23, 10, -59978, -8109, -36994, -13901, -3616, 14636, 10124, -10157, 8966, 1343, -10838, 13941, 3285, -129, 16081, -479800, -5062, -4325, 9875, 7100, 45500, 12140, 161100 I'd like to transform this to a column of values: 23 10 -59978 -8109 . . . 161100 Using sed for Windows I tried the command sed -silent s/,/\r\n/g peconind.txt where the txt file includes the comma separated data given above. The result of this command is 23? 10? -59978? -8109? . . . 161100 where, oddly, the last number does not have a question mark, but all of the others do. Perhaps I'm using the wrong syntax--if so, what is the correct syntax? On the other hand, perhaps there is a bug in your implementation of sed. Please let me. Regards, Ronald W.
