sorry I messed the script copy pasting.
Will try your solution (and try to understand it), looks it will fit better my goals

As always man pages have the tips:
Code:
The input is normally made up of input lines (records) separated by
     newlines, or by the value of RS.  If RS is null, then any number of blank
     lines are used as the record separator, and newlines are used as field
     separators (in addition to the value of FS).  This is convenient when
     working with multi-line records.

What I don't understand its why its needed to do '$1=$1'
