Top Forums UNIX for Beginners Questions & Answers How to Dump data into CSV file which is Separate by <tab>? Post 303032610 by nezabudka on Thursday 21st of March 2019 03:45:09 AM

Code:
pr -mts$'\t' <(sed '/^$/,$d' file) <(sed '1,/^$/d' file)

a different order would be easier
Code:
fmt file | column -t

But I understand the elementary example has a more complex structure?

Code:
paste  <(sed '/^$/,$d' file) <(sed '1,/^$/d' file)

Code:
awk '
BEGIN           {i=0}
!/^$/           {BUF[i] = BUF[i] sp $0; i+=1}
/^$/            {i=0; sp = "\t"}
END             {for (i in BUF) print BUF[i]}
' file

NAME
rcvpack - append message to file SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/mh/rcvpack file [-mbox] [-mmdf] [-version] [-help] DESCRIPTION
The rcvpack program will append a copy of the message to the file listed on its command line. If the -mbox switch is given (the default), then the messages are separated using mbox (uucp) style delimiters. This is the format used by most mail clients (elm, mailx, etc.). If the -mmdf switch is given, then the messages are separated by mmdf style delimiters. Each message in the file is separated by four CTRL-A's and a newline. rcvpack will correctly lock and unlock the file to serialize access to the file, when running multiple copies of rcvpack . In general, its use is obsoleted by the file action of slocal, although it might still have occasional uses in various shell scripts. FILES
/etc/nmh/mts.conf nmh mts configuration file SEE ALSO
rcvdist(1), rcvstore(1), rcvtty(1), slocal(1) BUGS
Only two return codes are meaningful, others should be. MH.6.8 11 June 2012 RCVPACK(1)
