Bug merge rows based on a common column

Hi guys,

Please guide me if you have a solution to this problem. I have tried paste -s but it's not giving the desired output.

I have a file with the following content-

A123 box1
B345 bat2
C431 my_id
A123 service
C431 box1
A123 my_id

I need two different outputs-

OUTPUT1
A123 box1 service my_id
B345 bat2
C431 my_id box1

OUTPUT2
box1 A123 C431
bat2 B345
my_id C431 A123
service A123

Your help is highly appretiated. Thanks in advance. Smilie

NAME
genrbox - generate a RADIANCE description of a box SYNOPSIS
genrbox mat name xsiz ysiz zsiz [ -i ][ -r rad | -b bev ] DESCRIPTION
Genbox produces a RADIANCE scene description of a parallelepiped with one corner at the origin and the opposite corner at (xsiz, ysiz, zsiz). The sides of the box will be parallel to the three coordinate planes. The surfaces that make up the box will be modified by mat and their identifiers will begin with name. The -i option can be used to produce a box with inward directed surface normals. The -r option can be used to specify the radius for rounded edges. The -b option can be used to specify the indentation for beveled edges. EXAMPLE
To produce a rectangular box made of wood with beveled edges: genrbox wood box1 5 8 3 -b .5 > box1 AUTHOR
Greg Ward BUGS
Because spheres and cylinders are used to construct boxes with rounded edges, a transparent box of this type appears quite messy. SEE ALSO
