[Asterisk-Users] How to quickly replace ', ' with '|' in dialplans?

[Steve]

I stink at regular expressions, but can always find what I need to get a 
job done using google :-)

Don't use vi (unless you figure out how to do it in vi).
I won't be much help there.

in this case sed is your friend.

It's a breeze to use too.

Here's what it looks like:  sed -e "s/text_to_find/text_to_replace/g" 
inputfile > outputfile
and yup you can use the same name for both files to simply update the 
file.

Make sure you back it up first of course.

Here's a link with some more examples using sed:

Hope this helps!
