Hi, I have data that looks similar to this:
In which the sentences are written horizontally and the beginning of a sentence is indicated by a 1 in the first column and the number increments until the last item of the sentence. The end of the sentence and the beginning of the next is then indicate by two white lines that separate them.
However, my data has some single white lines within the sentence which is causing problems. Is there a sed or a grep that will remove ONLY those instances of SINGLE white lines, leaving in place all of the double white lines that indicate the sentence change?
Guys, I need some help... how can I remove the blank spaces between the lines below? (between the date and the hour fields)
