I have picked only four blocks of the file. There are myriad entries with duplicates.
I thought of combining lines and run uniq command but some blocks have two lines but some blocks have 3 lines or more.
Code:
cat | paste -d - - | uniq
(This may not work for files more than 2 lines)
Could someone tell how to achieve the desired output?
