Shell Programming and Scripting
1

Hi,

I have a file, which contains ^C or ^A characters from mainfrme system, it's dec 192 or octal 300 hex C0. I want to replace this character with new line.

I used commands, but it didn't worked.

 
tr '\o300' '\n' <t >t2
#or 
tr '\xC0' '\n' <t  > t2

Can somebody help me to do it?

Assuming the character is what you state and that this is a normal text file, your syntax for "tr" needs adjustment.

tr "\300" "\n" <t >t2
