Hi,
When I run this command:
echo 2008:04:23 | sed 's/://'
The result is
200804:23
I expect to have this :
20080423
What is wrong with my very simple regexp ':' why all occurence of the
char ':' are not deleted ?
its make me crazy, can someone help me ?
Thanks
How about echo 2008:04:23 | sed 's/://g'The 'g' causes all instances of the ':' character on the line to be replaced. Normally it just replaces the first instance of a character on the line.
