grep|sed pipeline is ok on a command line where one is lazy, in a script it should be just sed :) Your $ws doesn't do what you expect it to do. Try your command on a line that actually has tabs. This is because backslash has no special meaning inside [], so your \t is not a tab, but either a backslash or a letter 't'. -uwe
