"...I posted a query a short while ago and had an informed answer within a c'ouple of h-ours. Terrific!..."

Anyone knows how to set the field seperator so that only the words with just letters are in?

so that it becomes:

I posted a query a short while ago and had an informed answer within a c ouple of h ours Terrific

(c'ouple --> c & ouple)

Thank you
 

Something to start with:

nawk '{gsub("[^a-zA-Z ]", ""); print}'
