is there a method to remove columns in place without as sed -i does

if not I can't find anything for sed which removes columns and restores file back to original

I am renaming thousands of audio files and it's very hard to check the new name in a standard file

eg: ren "original line is very long" "new name"

but with column command i can easily check and remove something to do later or alter contens of new and keep
