Thanks - I see the colon commands now. I've been handed a .csv which contains information on each line that would be extremely useful for grepping. Unfortunately, some cells contain carriage returns or newlines. I have been able to join lines that really should be together via this sed quickie:
which removes newlines followed by a blank line and basically joins the lines. However, there are some lines that follow the $\n that are characters. I still need these joined.
After examining this I don't see a way that sed can differentiate between fragmented lines versus non-fragmented lines, and hence I could possibly join all 6K lines in the file inadvertently. Oh well.
