I have a file like this:
---------------------------------------------------------------
Code:
26
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,440
I don't know why he can't just do
the Great Apache Flaming Arrow Act.

00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:54,839
Didn't you tell him
to use the gopher snake?

------------------------------------------------------------------
I want to join two lines but only the lines with letters and
when the two lines have together not more than for example 50 characters.
I try the next script and the output of the script show me the lines that can be joined but the script join also the lines with numbers.
When I'm change punct with alpha than the script doesn't work anymore.
And I don't know how to save the file.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Code:
#!/bin/bash
clear
tr -d '\r' < file >newfile
together=`cat file | sed '/[^[:punct:]],*$/{N;s/\n/ /;}'`
echo "$together" | while read line
do
count=`echo "$line" | wc -c`
if [ "$count" -lt 50 ]
then
echo "$line"
fi
done
--------------------------------------------------------------------
If someone know a solution, thanks very much.

I've looked at the join command which is able to perform what I need on two rows with a common field, however if I have more than two rows I need to join all of them.
Thus I have one file with multiple rows to be joined on an index number:
1 randomtext1
2 rtext2
2 rtext3
3 rtext4
3 rtext5... (5 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.
