Hi,

I am new to UNIX scripting and woiuld appreicate your help...

Input file contains only one (but long) record:

aaaaabbbbbcccccddddd.....

Desired file:

NEW RECORD #new record (hardcoded) added as first record - its length is irrelevant#
aaaaa
bbbbb
ccccc
ddddd
...
...

a,b,c,d.... could be anything, including spaces.

I 'feel' awk should be the best tool, but my lack of knowledge...

thank you very much.
