sorry, didn't read the question before ..:-[
if there is always the same number of column separator per line and this
number is known, then use something like that.
Suppose there are 5 columns:
sed 's|\t|\n|g' <yourfile> |sed -r 'n;n;n;s|[A-Z]+|\L\u\0|g;n' |sed
'N;N;N;N;s|\n|\t|g'
* replace tabs with newline
* skip first three lines, i.e. first three columns
* lowercase 4th line (4th column)
* skip next line (i.e. 5th column)
* restore columns: replace newlines with tabs
