hm
when I use
awk '{printf( "%s\n", $1 ) }' ZZline_char > ZZline_char1

it prints each number onto a separate line. the thing is that i want the first column from two rows from ZZline_char on the same line.
Then, on the next line, I want to cat another file

So ZZline_char looks like this
11 test
22 junk

i want a file that looks like this
11 22

then i have a second file that only has this
100

i want the final output to be
11 22
100

what i was getting was
11 22 100

now i am getting
11
22
100

you are all AMAZINGLY helpful!!!
