If you want to remove just the quotes, you could do:
vi your_file.txt
and in vi, do:
:s/"//g
That's colon,s,forward-slash,double-quote,forward-slash,forward-slash,g
Then, if it looks ok, to save the changes:
:wq
And there are probably a million other ways to do it, between, sed, awk, perl,
emacs, etc,etc,etc.....
If you're unfamiliar/uncomfortable w/ vi, two other thoughts:
1.) Make a backup of the file before you begin. Do: cp your_file.txt
your_file.txt.backup
2.) If you're in vi, and you do NOT want to save changes, instead of doing
':wq', do this:
:q!
Hope that helps,

Subject: linux question
Hi all,
I have a file that I am moving from Windows to the Linux box.
The file looks like:
"1,2,3,....."
"1,2,3,....."
So, every like is in double quotes.
How can I open the file and remove them (quotes) using Linux command?
Is it easier to do it on Windows via some batch file?
Thanks,
Eugene Pipko
