-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have a client who has mysteriously damaged a whole bunch of files. Basically, there are 2300 files in a directory and sub-directories, which are comma delimited. Somehow a bunch of files had an extra comma added at the end of some lines. What I need to do is to remove double commas ",," from the _end_ of some lines in each file (there are double commas in the middle of the line that must be untouched).
This screams sed to me, but I am missing something, since I cannot seem to find the regex incantation that will find two commas at the end only. It seemed simple, but then I am used to vim syntax (:%s/,,$/,/g), which normally also works in sed for me. Any help would be appreciated.
