Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Moving line up if line starts with + sign. Post 302804609 by Don Cragun on Thursday 9th of May 2013 02:45:21 AM

If the first line of input happens to start with a plus sign, all of the scripts provided so far will skip that line. If the input file could ever have this condition, the following alternative script should work:
Code:
awk '/^[+]/ {printf("%s", $0);next}
{printf("%s%s", NR > 1 ? "\n" : "", $0)}
END{print ""}' file1 > file2

With the sample input file hanson44 provided, the output placed into file2 will be:
Code:
Line 1+ Line 2
Line 3+ Line 4+ Line 5
Line 6+ Line 7+ Line 8+ Line 9
Line 10
Line 11

If the contents of file1 is:
Code:
+ Line 2
Line 3
+ Line 4
+ Line 5
Line 6
+ Line 7
+ Line 8
+ Line 9

the output placed into file2 will be:
Code:
+ Line 2
Line 3+ Line 4+ Line 5
Line 6+ Line 7+ Line 8+ Line 9

As always, if you're going to run this on a Solaris/SunOS system, use /usr/xpg4/bin/awk, /usr/xpg6/bin/awk, or nawk instead of awk.
