I have a file that is formatted in this way.
a1;b2;c33;d4;e5;e;f;f;f;s
d;ds;d;a;v;b;g;gr;r;rt;fdf
s1;s2;s2;s3;s4;
b1;f2;g3;h4;a3c4e;xcsd;fds;
sd2;fs4;fs2;sdf3;
I want to replace the value just before the 4th semicolon to empty string, regardless the value, such that it looks like this for every block of data separated by a line
a1;b2;c33;;e5;e;f;f;f;s
d;ds;d;a;v;b;g;gr;r;rt;fdf
s1;s2;s2;s3;s4;
b1;f2;g3;;a3c4e;xcsd;fds;
sd2;fs4;fs2;sdf3;
I tried using
sed 's/[^*];//4'
but to no avail. Any ideas?
