split a line using a token
hi all,
is ksh, is there a way to split a line so it displays the output on seperate lines from a grep command ??

i have a script which greps for "responseTime" from log files but when i echo the output of the grep command it displays all occurances of the string all on one line which is hard to read.


i.e it currently displays this :

[12/4/08 16:18:31:298 NZDT] 4c4a8d responseTime [307 millis] [12/4/08 16:19:47:005 NZDT] 1affb08 responseTime[692 millis] [12/4/08 16:19:47:416 NZDT] 1affb08 responseTime[692 millis]


and i wanted to display it in this way :

[12/4/08 16:18:31:298 NZDT] 4c4a8d responseTime [307 millis]
[12/4/08 16:19:47:005 NZDT] 1affb08 responseTime[692 millis]
[12/4/08 16:19:47:416 NZDT]1affb08 responseTime[692 millis]



thanks in advance.

grep-excuses

GREP-EXCUSES(1) 					      General Commands Manual						   GREP-EXCUSES(1)

NAME

       grep-excuses - search the testing excuses files for a specific maintainer

SYNOPSIS

       grep-excuses [options] [maintainer|package]

DESCRIPTION

       grep-excuses  downloads	the  update_excuses.html file and greps it for the specified maintainer name.  The libwww-perl package is required
       for this script.  If no name is given on the command line, first the environment variable DEBFULLNAME is used if it is defined, and failing
       that, the configuration variable described below is used.

OPTIONS

       --no-conf, --noconf
	      Do not read any configuration files.  This can only be used as the first option given on the command-line.

       --wipnity, -w
	      Get information from <http://release.debian.org/migration/>.  A package name must be given when using this option.

       --help Show a brief usage message.

       --version
	      Show version and copyright information.

CONFIGURATION VARIABLES

       The  two configuration files /etc/devscripts.conf and ~/.devscripts are sourced in that order to set configuration variables.  Command line
       options can be used to override configuration file settings.  Environment variable settings are ignored for this  purpose.   The  currently
       recognised variable is:

       GREP_EXCUSES_MAINTAINER
	      The default maintainer, email or package to grep for if none is specified on the command line.

SEE ALSO

       devscripts.conf(5).
