The file FTP'd got few breaks and the data looks like:

ABCTOM NYMANAGER
ABCDAVE NJ
PROGRAMMER
ABCJIM CTTECHLEAD
ABCPETERCA
HR


and i want the output like:

ABCTOM NYMANAGER
ABCDAVE NJPROGRAMMER
ABCJIM CTTECHLEAD
ABCPETERCAHR


can you please help me in writing the shell script to fix these broken lines.
Every line is supposed to start with 'ABC' (key positions). Also the break is always at the 11th position and continues on the next line at 4th position..

Thanks

epub-fix

EPUB-FIX(1)							      calibre							       EPUB-FIX(1)

NAME

       epub-fix - part of calibre

SYNOPSIS

       epub-fix  [options] file.epub

DESCRIPTION

       Fix common problems in EPUB files that can cause them to be rejected by poorly designed publishing services.

       By  default,  no fixing is done and messages are printed out for each error detected. Use the options to control which errors are automati-
       cally fixed.

       Whenever you pass arguments to epub-fix that have spaces in them, enclose the arguments in quotation marks.

OPTIONS

       --version
	      show program's version number and exit

       -h, --help
	      show this help message and exit

       --unmanifested
	      Fix unmanifested files. epub-fix can either add them to the manifest or delete them as specified by the delete unmanifested option.

       --delete-unmanifested
	      Delete unmanifested files instead of adding them to the manifest

       --epubcheck
	      Workarounds for bugs in the latest release of epubcheck. epubcheck reports many things as errors that are not actually errors. epub-
	      fix will try to detect these and replace them with constructs that epubcheck likes. This may cause significant changes to your epub,
	      complain to the epubcheck project.
