What I am trying to accomplish is to get all the lines starting from "New:" until next "New:" is read; on to one line. Resultant lines should be like:
New: This is a new record and it is not on same line. Since I have lost touch with script take this challenge and bring all this in one line.
New: Hello losttouch. You seem to be struggling with this really simple challenge.
New: It is better that I ask some expert on unix.com.They will show you this is simple enough.
As I mentioned in the above statements, I have lost touch with this, I am really struggling to accomplish this task. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks so much.
EDIT: Needless to say that if I read next "New:" (lets say in any variable) it implies, my previous record is complete and should be displayed or appended to a file.

A bit of background: I am trying to create a script that formats SQL statements. I have gotten so far as to add new lines based on certain match criteria like commas, keywords etc. In the process, I end up adding newlines where I don't want.
For example: substr(colName, 1, 10)... (3 Replies)

PAPS(1) General Commands Manual PAPS(1)NAME
paps - UTF-8 to PostScript converter using Pango
SYNOPSIS
paps [options] files...
DESCRIPTION
paps reads a UTF-8 encoded file and generates a PostScript language rendering of the file. The rendering is done by creating outline curves
through the pango ft2 backend.
OPTIONS
These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is
included below.
--landscape
Landscape output. Default is portrait.
--columns=cl
Number of columns output. Default is 1.
--font=desc
Set the font description. Default is Monospace 12.
--rtl Do rtl layout.
--paper ps
Choose paper size. Known paper sizes are legal, letter, a4. Default is A4.
--bottom-margin=bm
Set bottom margin in postscript points (1/72 inch). Default is 36.
--top-margin=tm
Set top margin. Default is 36.
--left-margin=lm
Set left margin. Default is 36.
--right-margin=rm
Set right margin. Default is 36.
--help Show summary of options.
--header
Draw page header for each page.
--markup
Interpret the text as pango markup.
--encoding=ENCODING
Assume the documentation encoding is ENCODING.
--lpi Set the lines per inch. This determines the line spacing.
--cpi Set the characters per inch. This is an alternative method of specifying the font size.
--stretch-chars
Indicates that characters should be stretched in the y-direction to fill up their vertical space. This is similar to the texttops
behaviour.
