Greetings All;
I have a script that handles our pop numbers and it requires I change
the format of a large poplist we use for input.
This is the format - CA,Anaheim,714,408,4411
and what I need is - CA,Anaheim,714-408-4411
because I don't enough perl to modify the script and I can't figure out
how use sed to do it.
awk will do the substitution, but removes the first 2 commas in the
process.
awk -F, '{print $1,$2,$3,-$4,-$5}' poplist
Thoughts? snippets of code?
Tom
