Thank you very much.
The sed command works great.
The -i option is also great, thank you for the suggestions.

Try this:
sed -e 's/ \+/\t/g'
Now, normally, I'd use a "\s" to represent any form of whitespace, but for
some reason, this wasn't working for me, so I just used a single space.
Honestly, I *really* like regexes, but I use them either in a language
like Perl, or in an editor most often. Sed isn

I have a file like this:
[arbitrary number of spaces]/37/[arbitrary number of
spaces]/100/[arbitrary number of spaces]/95/
I want to convert each arbitrary number of spaces into one tab:
[tab]/37/[tab]/100/[tab]/95/
How can I do this with sed?
Thank you.

Now the *oposite* question:
If I have a line like this "akd_fak_asdkf_jal" and I want the leading "akd"
How can I do this using sed or other utilities?

Thank you Joshua.
It works well.
The command was not simple. It seems that you know a lot about regular

Hey everyone,
I have a sed question. I want to add more specific user information to the
/etc/passwd file using a shell script. I'm thinking of something like the following
to edit /etc/passwd's last line:
echo Please enter the user's full name:

sed -i '$s/::/:$fullname:/' /et
