I'll take it back. If the only constraints are that you can't change RS and you can't have an END clause, this simple modification to my earlier script will do what you want:
Code:
gawk '/^1_this/ {
if(NR != 1) printf("\n")
printf("%s|", $0)
next
}
{printf("%s", $0)}' input
if [ -s input ]
then echo
fi
It uses the echo command outside of the awk script to add the <newline> that was being provided by the END clause. It just doesn't seem natural to have to add a shell if statement outside of awk when the rest of the program's logic is entirely performed in awk.

Hello, there. I have a file that's a horrible, horrible mess. (Basically, it's an export from a firewall config.) The people who generated the file didn't think that putting a newline in the middle of a hostname would ever be a problem. It is.
Here's an example of the stuff in the file:

test::use::ok5.18
Test::use::ok(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Test::use::ok(3)NAME
Test::use::ok - Alternative to Test::More::use_ok
SYNOPSIS
use ok 'Some::Module';
DESCRIPTION
According to the Test::More documentation, it is recommended to run "use_ok()" inside a "BEGIN" block, so functions are exported at
compile-time and prototypes are properly honored.
That is, instead of writing this:
use_ok( 'Some::Module' );
use_ok( 'Other::Module' );
One should write this:
BEGIN { use_ok( 'Some::Module' ); }
BEGIN { use_ok( 'Other::Module' ); }
However, people often either forget to add "BEGIN", or mistakenly group "use_ok" with other tests in a single "BEGIN" block, which can
create subtle differences in execution order.
With this module, simply change all "use_ok" in test scripts to "use ok", and they will be executed at "BEGIN" time. The explicit space
after "use" makes it clear that this is a single compile-time action.
