I have output a file and need to remove blank spaces in the first lines only so the file is left end justified. I need to do this while keeping the rest of the file intact.
Example of file that needs spaces removed:
space
space space
space space space
space space space space
space space space space space
This is how file needs to be:
space
space space
space space space
space space space space
space space space space space
Any help is greatly appreciated
Umm... these two cases look identical... am I missing something here? 
Unfortunately in my example I just noticed I can't put spaces in my sample file. Here is how the file that needs to be left end justified looks (I'm using > to represent a space).
space
>>space space
>>>>>space space space
>>>>>>>>space space space space
>>>>space space space space space
Hey Tioray,
I think you asked me this on Friday... 
Tiotony helped me figure this one out....
sed 's/^[ ]*//g' infile > outfile
Have fun....
