Use code tags, thanks.

Hello OscarS,

Welcome to forums, please use code tags as per forum rules to codes/Inputs/commands used in your posts as per forum rules. Now coming on to your request, you haven't mentioned which command you have used to get the shown output, you could following and let me know if that helps.

Code:

Your_command | awk '{A=A?A OFS $0:$0} END{print A}'

In case you need to get input from a file then you could use as follows.

Code:

awk '{A=A?A OFS $0:$0} END{print A}'  Input_file

As always on a Solaris/SunOS system, change awk to /usr/xpg4/bin/awk, /usr/xpg6/bin/awk , or nawk.

Thanks,

Or, more simply:

Code:

your_command | tr '\n' ' ';echo

Or

Code:

echo $(your_command)
