I have 70mb .tsv file, i want to remove the '/' from each line and add space instead of '/' using sed or tr or any linux based command

I want to remove the ‘/’ from each line and add space instead of ‘/’

8 4056078 4056078 cttttttttttttttttttttt cTTttttttttttttttttttttt

>Solution :

You can use a combination of grep and sed to replace all occurrences of / with a space in each line of your input file.

grep . input.txt | sed 's/\// /g

If you want to save the output to a new file, you can redirect the output:

grep . input.txt | sed 's/\// /g' > output.txt
