[Tutor] How o convert spaces into tabs??

[jyotsna guleria]

Hello every one,

I am trying to parse a file:

I want to convert all the spaces in between the characters to single tab.

e.g: my file has contents like:

1G5            79011      1        0      2       0      0        0
0       0       0        0
5Ht-2          60459      1        1      0       0      0        0
0       0       0        0


I want them to be separated by a single tab not with spaces..

It should look like:

1G5    79011    1    0    2    0    0    0    0    0    0    0
5Ht-2    60459    1    1    0    0    0    0    0    0    0    0

each separated by Tab...

It is a text file containing such a data ..


Thanks
