Shell script (beginner) need help...
Hello,

I'm new to Sheel script and I need your help for a script I need to develop (for me).

Indead, I have a software which log all entry from internet and save it in text file.
But, the log is practically unreadable because every 256 characters jump to a new line (even if the message is not finish).

For example (fake):
Quote:
10:02:23:124:id_0000:1:"RaZ."
10:02:23:125:id_0001:1:"A entry was detecte"
10:02:23:125:id_0001:2:"d at port 200. Pleas"
10:02:23:125:id_0001:3:"e call suport."
10:04:56:201:id_0002:1:"RaZ."
I need to transform it into:
Quote:
10:02:23:124:id_0000:1:"RaZ."
10:02:23:125:id_0001:1:"A entry was detected at port 200. Please call suport."
10:04:56:201:id_0002:1:"RaZ."
I tried some script with uniq or sort, but, I'm beginner and I need your help Smilie

Thanks a lot for your response,

Acid

[edit] the log file can be huge (100 000 lines, so it's vey unpleasant to read)

nwgetconnlistfromobject

NWGETCONNLISTFROMOBJECT(3NCP)											     NWGETCONNLISTFROMOBJECT(3NCP)

NAME

       NWGetConnListFromObject - Retrieve connection list of specified object

SYNOPSIS

       #include <nwcalls.h>

       NWCCODE NWGetConnListFromObject(NWCONN_HANDLE conn, nuint32 objID, NWCONN_NUM firstConn, size_t* noOfReturnedConns, NWCONN_NUM* connList);

DESCRIPTION

       This function retrieves connection list of specified object from server.

       conn
	  conn contains connection handle obtained from ncp_open(3ncp) or NWParsePath(3ncp).

       objID
	  objID contains server specific object ID. For bindery, it is object ID, for NDS objects it is local entry number.

       firstConn
	  firstConn specifies, from which connection start search. Use 0 on first call and highest returned value on subsequent.

       noOfReturnedConns
	  noOfReturnedConns contains number of returned connections. It may be NULL, there is no reason for pass NULL into this function.  At most
	  125 connections are returned at once.

       connList
	  connList is array for returned connection numbers. It may be NULL, in this case, only noOfReturnedConns  is  returned.   connList  array
	  must be able to hold 125 entries.

RETURN VALUE

       Function returns zero on success and non-zero on failure.  If specified object does not exist, success is returned and noOfReturnedConns is
       set to zero.
       If noOfReturnedConns is 125, it is possible that list is incomplete and NWGetConnListFromObject should be invoked again for another set	of
       connections.

       See nwerrors(3ncp) for complete list of	error codes.

BUGS

       None known.
