I am not seeing any relationship between the sample data, the desired output, or sample.txt included in the 1st message in this thread and the shell script shown in the 3rd message in this thread.
I was expecting the sample data shown in the 1st message and the data in sample.txt attached to the 1st message to be the same (or at least similar), but they aren't. I don't see any obvious relationship between the desired output and the sample input or sample.txt data.
Please give us an English description of what the format is for the input data. Then explain why the count shown in the first line does not exactly match the number of characters in the following lines, why some groups start with ength-<number>] while others start with Length-<number>], what determines what should be printed in the 1st two fields of the output, and what determines how much of the text from the input should be copied into the 3rd field in the output.

NAME
script - make record of a terminal session
SYNOPSIS
script [-a] [filename]
DESCRIPTION
The script utility makes a record of everything printed on your screen. The record is written to filename. If no file name is given, the
record is saved in the file typescript. See WARNINGS.
The script command forks and creates a sub-shell, according to the value of $SHELL, and records the text from this session. The script ends
when the forked shell exits or when Control-d is typed.
OPTIONS
The following option is supported:
-a Appends the session record to filename, rather than overwriting it.
NOTES
script places everything that appears on the screen in filename, including prompts.
ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:

WARNINGS
script can pose a security risk when used in directories that are writable by other users (for example, /tmp), especially when run by a
privileged user, that is, root. Be sure that typescript is not a link before running script.
