The question does not have to be directly related to Linux and any language is fair game.

I'm a doing a script. There are some part of the script that I need to do but don't know how to do it.
If I have a text which contains:
Quote:
foo,fee,fii,fuu
Could I rearrange it to:
Quote:
foo
fee
fii
fuu
I don't know if sed can do this. There are some function of sed that I just recently discovered but I don't know if it can do the scenario above.
I'm currently checking a tool/command that could help me do this thing just wandering if there's anyone out there that could suggest on how I could accomplish this.
In the array assignment array=($list), $list is substituted and then split into array elements wherever a character from the IFS (=internal field separator?) variable is found.
unset IFS results in bash treating IFS as if it had the default value. It is a quicker and more concise way of restoring a default IFS than saving the default value and re-assigning it.
Thanks. I'm actually talking to my web developer coz it seems he can parse the data before as a single line separated by comma before it pass to my script.
