I came up with this script. It seems hackish and very inefficient, but it works. I would love for someone to help me come up with a better way since this script takes almost 10 full minutes to parse a text file into less than 7000 lines.
I just realized this script is substituting the 79th character with the newline and space. From what Ive been reading, I can add an ampersand before the newline escape in the sed replacement pattern. However when I put an ampersand there, it ruins the ldif file, cutting lines and inserting groups of blank lines. Ive searched all through a million forums, mostly suggesting using escaped parentheses to remember a pattern and then \1 to recall it with the newline after that. It doesnt work for me. Any which way I try to recall the 79th character in the replacement string and add to it, I get this crazy blank line effect on my file. I am on os x 10.4.11 server. Frustrating! How do I make it so the newline will come after the 79th character and not as a substitute?

SLAPD-LDIF(5) File Formats Manual SLAPD-LDIF(5)NAME
slapd-ldif - LDIF backend to slapd
SYNOPSIS
/etc/ldap/slapd.conf
DESCRIPTION
The LDIF backend to slapd(8) is a basic storage backend that stores entries in text files in LDIF format, and exploits the filesystem to
create the tree structure of the database. It is intended as a cheap, low performance easy to use backend, and it is exploited by higher-
level internal structures to provide a permanent storage.
CONFIGURATION
These slapd.conf options apply to the LDIF backend database. That is, they must follow a "database ldif" line and come before any subse-
quent "backend" or "database" lines. Other database options are described in the slapd.conf(5) manual page.
directory <dir>
Specify the directory where the database tree starts. The directory must exist and grant appropriate permissions (rwx) to the iden-
tity slapd is running with.
ACCESS CONTROL
The LDIF backend does not honor any of the access control semantics described in slapd.access(5). Only read (=r) access to the entry
pseudo-attribute and to the other attribute values of the entries returned by the search operation is honored, which is performed by the
frontend.
FILES
/etc/ldap/slapd.conf
default slapd configuration file
