Find regex, place on individual lines and insert blank line before
Hello,
I have a file that I want to be able to insert a new line before every instance of a regex. I can get it to do this for each line that contains the regex, but not for each instance.
Contents of infile:
Code:
Test this 1...
Test this 2...
Test this 3... Test this 4... Test this 5...
Test this 6...
I would like it to look like this:
Code:
Test this 1...
Test this 2...
Test this 3...
Test this 4...
Test this 5...
Test this 6...
This is on a SunOS 5.10 box.
