Merging multiple lines to columns with awk, while inserting commas for missing lines
Hello all,
I have a large csv file where there are four types of rows I need to merge into one row per person, where there is a column for each possible code / type of row, even if that code/row isn't there for that person.
In the csv, a person may be listed from one to four times consecutively. Each row in which they are listed has a number of hours and a code (WE, MO, CE, ES) that indicates type of hours
I found a similar thread and a solution to a similar problem. The forum won't let me post links yet, but you can add this to the base URL /shell-programming-and-scripting/208027-merge-multiple-lines-same-file-common-key-using-awk.html to open that thread.
However, the output of that script tacks each of the optional lines on to the end of the first line, but that messes up the csv columns, so that the same data is not in the same place in the merged columns, afterward.
Here is a simplified version of the input data I have, which has a lot of fields per line after these, but where for each person, all fields except for the type-of-hours code, and number of hours are identical between lines the person is listed on:
I need the output, to be in the form
Please let me know how I might get this kind of output from this kind of input using awk. Thanks so much for your help!
Hello,

PAPS(1) General Commands Manual PAPS(1)NAME
paps - UTF-8 to PostScript converter using Pango
SYNOPSIS
paps [options] files...
DESCRIPTION
paps reads a UTF-8 encoded file and generates a PostScript language rendering of the file. The rendering is done by creating outline curves
through the pango ft2 backend.
OPTIONS
These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is
included below.
--landscape
Landscape output. Default is portrait.
--columns=cl
Number of columns output. Default is 1.
--font=desc
Set the font description. Default is Monospace 12.
--rtl Do rtl layout.
--paper ps
Choose paper size. Known paper sizes are legal, letter, a4. Default is A4.
--bottom-margin=bm
Set bottom margin in postscript points (1/72 inch). Default is 36.
--top-margin=tm
Set top margin. Default is 36.
--left-margin=lm
Set left margin. Default is 36.
--right-margin=rm
Set right margin. Default is 36.
--help Show summary of options.
--header
Draw page header for each page.
--markup
Interpret the text as pango markup.
--encoding=ENCODING
Assume the documentation encoding is ENCODING.
--lpi Set the lines per inch. This determines the line spacing.
--cpi Set the characters per inch. This is an alternative method of specifying the font size.
--stretch-chars
Indicates that characters should be stretched in the y-direction to fill up their vertical space. This is similar to the texttops
behaviour.
