From: ajay paswan Date: 2012-08-09T18:31:49+09:00 Subject: File eliminating 'a' How can I eliminate every 'a' in a file if it is not inside double quote? For example: input:"acb"gha"abc" output:"acb"gh"abc" Or simply how can I copy file character by character? I can modify then the program as my need. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
