Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Generating CSV from Column data Post 302870521 by Don Cragun on Monday 4th of November 2013 01:16:07 AM

As long as there is only one word on indented lines (as in your example), the following should work:
Code:
awk '
/^[[:space:]]/ {
        o = o "," $1
        next
}
{       if(o != "") print o
        o = $0
}
END {   if(o != "") print o
}' file

If you want to try this on a Solaris/SunOS system, change awk to /usr/xpg4/bin/awk, /usr/xpg6/bin/awk, or nawk.

NAME
rails -- Web-application framework SYNOPSIS
rails path [options...] DESCRIPTION
Rails is a web-application and persistence framework that includes everything needed to create database-backed web-applications according to the Model-View-Control pattern of separation. This pattern splits the view (also called the presentation) into "dumb" templates that are pri- marily responsible for inserting pre-built data in between HTML tags. The model contains the "smart" domain objects (such as Account, Prod- uct, Person, Post) that holds all the business logic and knows how to persist themselves to a database. The controller handles the incoming requests (such as Save New Account, Update Product, Show Post) by manipulating the model and directing data to the view. Rails is written with the ruby(1) language. For more information about Rails you can use its ---help flag. There is also online documentation available at "http://rubyonrails.org". SEE ALSO
