Hello,

char* getext(char *file)
{
char *extension;

Hello,
Need help substituting a particular word in a file having a single line but no newline character at the end.
I was trying to use sed but it doesn't work probably because there is no newline char at the end of the line.

Greetings!
Can we automate the process of removing a newline char from selected rows in a fixed width file using a shell?
Input is like
abcd1234
xyzd1234
abcd
a1b2c3d4
abcd1234
xyzd1234
xx
abcd1234
Expected output -
abcd1234xyzd1234

The #rd line had the unexpted new line, which need to be replaced with space.

gets
GETS(3) Library Functions Manual GETS(3)NAME
gets, fgets - get a string from a stream
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdio.h>
char *gets(char *s)
char *fgets(char *s, int n, FILE *stream)
DESCRIPTION
Gets reads a string into s from the standard input stream stdin. The string is terminated by a newline character, which is replaced in s
by a null character. Gets returns its argument.
Fgets reads n-1 characters, or up through a newline character, whichever comes first, from the stream into the string s. The last charac-
ter read into s is followed by a null character. Fgets returns its first argument.
SEE ALSO puts(3), getc(3), scanf(3), fread(3), ferror(3).
DIAGNOSTICS
Gets and fgets return the constant pointer NULL upon end of file or error.
BUGS
Gets deletes a newline, fgets keeps it, all in the name of backward compatibility.
Gets is not present in the Minix-vmd C library for reasons that should be obvious. Use fgets instead.
