In my bash script I would like to replace

Answer 1

I recommend using the tr function

echo "$line" | tr '@@' '\n'

For example:

[itzhaki@local ~]$ X="Value1|Value2|Value3|Value4@@ Value5|Value6|Value7|Value8@@"
[itzhaki@local ~]$ X=`echo "$X" | tr '@@' '\n'`
[itzhaki@local ~]$ echo "$X"
Value1|Value2|Value3|Value4

 Value5|Value6|Value7|Value8
