The sed converts 3 or more blanks to TABs, the cut extracts column (field) 2, and the paste combines 2 lines into one.
If the whitespace in the results does not show up on your display, rest assured that the tokens are separated by a TAB. You can copy and paste them to see it.

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:

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 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.

cut
CUT(1) General Commands Manual CUT(1)NAME
cut - select out columns of a file
SYNOPSIS
cut [ -b | -c] list [file...]
cut -f list [-d delim] [ -s]
OPTIONS -b Cut specified bytes
-c Select out specific characters
-d Change the column delimiter to delim
-f Select out specific fields that are separated by the
-i Runs of delimiters count as one
-s Suppres lines with no delimiter characters, when used
EXAMPLES
cut -f 2 file # Extract field 2
cut -c 1-2,5 file # Extract character columns 1, 2, and 5
cut -c 1-5,7- file # Extract all columns except 6
DESCRIPTION
[file...]" delimiter character ( see delim)" with the -f option. Lines with no delimiters are passwd through untouched"
Cut extracts one or more fields or columns from a file and writes them on standard output. If the -f flag is used, the fields are sepa-
rated by a delimiter character, normally a tab, but can be changed using the -d flag. If the -c flag is used, specific columns can be
specified. The list can be comma or BLANK separated. The -f and -c flags are mutually exclusive. Note: The POSIX1003.2 standard requires
the option -b to cut out specific bytes in a file. It is intended for systems with multi byte characters (e.g. kanji), since MINIX uses
only one byte characters, this option is equivalent to -c. For the same reason, the option -n has no effect and is not listed in this man-
ual page.
