I need a simpel UNIX command that can remove some tagged text from a file.
The file looks likes this:
To/NUM kendte/ADJ russiske/ADJ historikere/N Andronik/EGEN Mirganjan/EGEN og/SKONJ Igor/EGEN Klamkin/EGEN tror/V_PRES ikke/ADV ,/TEGN at/UKONJ Rusland/EGEN kan/V_PRES udvikles/V_INF uden/PRÆP en/PRON_UBST "/TEGN jernnæve/N "/TEGN.
What i need to remove is the /XXX from the text, but i need to maintain the punctuation and the rest of thne text.
How can i do this?
