so my file has formatted  like this i.e tab separated columns with csv per column        1 B,B,B,B  C,C,C,C  D,D,D,D        2 A,A,A,A  B,B,B,B  E,E,E,EI would like to remove the duplicates from each filed but in a line by line manner, where each line duplicates are treated independently.so the output should be 1 B C D2 A B E i am New to linux and havent come across this on any of the previous posts, where each line is dealt with on its own.
delete duplicate entries in a particular comma sep fields per line
