CAVEAT: If there are any files in the script's current working directory with the same name as a first column's value, that file will have data appended before being deleted. If uncertain, best to run it from an empty directory.
It's probably best to wait for an AWK or perl solution
In the code: k=key, v=value, w=waste (unwanted data), f=file list.
I have a long file originally created with vi but at some point saved with MS Word. At another time I substituted all occurrences of ^M with XXX. Now I'd like to get this back to vi but with the XXX converted to newline.
I'm using whatever version of vim Apple employs.
Thanks,
