Well, okay, that's a more exact opposite of INSERT than I was thinking
of. I just want to excise a particular range of columns, regardless of
its contents. But, hmmm, in simple cases, XLATE|CHANGE does the trick:
... | xlate w2-4
Another variant would be if only the first n occurrences were to be removed,
... | change /string/ // n | ...
Glenn can probably come up with other variants.:-)

Richard,
Lovely! If this is, indeed, what Glenn was looking for, I would suggest
one enhancement: If the goal is to remove a string at a certain point in
the record (inverse of "insert after..." or "insert before..."), I'd
code it as
... | change /string/ // | ...
to avoid deletin
PIPE ... | change /string/ // | ...

RE: opposite of INSERT
The termination problem is a bit different, but the net effect is that
THREEWAY terminates when any stream goes to EOF without writing to
higher-numbered streams that may be connected, but *after* consuming
the record.
And you get message 1382.
