Thank You Ravinder. It was a very simple solution that you provided and it works.
Can you let me know how it works ? man xargs didnt give much.
How does it even detect the spaces ?
xargs builds commands from standard input. The -n will specify maximum number of arguments to use in the execution of the command. The default command is echo.
As a way of observation note: just because a command might fit in a single line or it appears shorter does not mean it is simpler, nor faster, nor better. What's going behind the scenes may be as important as how much you need to enter at the command line.
For instance, look at the execution time of these two commands:

im using sed with this sed -e 's/" "/\n/' templist > templist.out but it doesn't work. can someone please help me. (2 Replies)
