Hello,
I'm trying to figure out how to use sed or awk to delete single lines in a file. By single, I mean lines that are not touching any other lines (just one line with white space above and below).
Example:

Sample file:
This is line one,
this is another line,
this is the PRIMARY INDEX line

Hi guys!
I use AWK commands under GAMS to predispose the data files to be read by GAMS.
I have a file which contains groups of data I need. Unfortunately I have the data spread in 3 rows for each subject.
Here's an example (the file is really long)
1 0 2.0956 100.00 250.00 100.00 2.0956... (4 Replies)
Dear Unix Forums,
I am hoping you can help me with a pattern matching problem.
What am I trying to do?
I want to replace multiple lines of a text file (that match a multi-line pattern) with a single line of text. These patterns can span several lines and do not always have the same number of... (10 Replies)
I have an awk statement in a ksh script that looks for a certain string then looks at each line after to find another match. The match could be the next line or second down and it works well.

In the awk piped to sed below I am trying to format file by removing the odd xxxx_digits and whitespace after, then move the even xxxx_digit to the line above it and add a space between them.

english5.18
English(3pm) Perl Programmers Reference Guide English(3pm)NAME
English - use nice English (or awk) names for ugly punctuation variables
SYNOPSIS
use English;
use English qw( -no_match_vars ) ; # Avoids regex performance penalty
# in perl 5.16 and earlier
...
if ($ERRNO =~ /denied/) { ... }
DESCRIPTION
This module provides aliases for the built-in variables whose names no one seems to like to read. Variables with side-effects which get
triggered just by accessing them (like $0) will still be affected.
For those variables that have an awk version, both long and short English alternatives are provided. For example, the $/ variable can be
referred to either $RS or $INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR if you are using the English module.
See perlvar for a complete list of these.
PERFORMANCE
NOTE: This was fixed in perl 5.20. Mentioning these three variables no longer makes a speed difference. This section still applies if
your code is to run on perl 5.18 or earlier.
This module can provoke sizeable inefficiencies for regular expressions, due to unfortunate implementation details. If performance matters
in your application and you don't need $PREMATCH, $MATCH, or $POSTMATCH, try doing
use English qw( -no_match_vars ) ;
. It is especially important to do this in modules to avoid penalizing all applications which use them.
