DATA8.1 POSITION_148901.1     COLUMN683699.1
DATA9.1 ROW00000328596 UNIT00000328207
.

Desired output file:
Code:
DATA2.2 POSITION_152486.2     COLUMN689699.2	ROW00000342066 UNIT00000342313
DATA7.2 POSITION_017891.4     COLUMN060361.4	ROW00000379319 UNIT00000368623	ROW00000421241 UNIT00000400736
DATA8.1 POSITION_153254.2     COLUMN694986.2	ROW00000379288 UNIT00000368590	POSITION_148901.1     COLUMN683699.1	POSITION_148901.1     COLUMN683699.1
DATA9.1 ROW00000328596 UNIT00000328207
.

I have long list of input file and would like to merge those share the content in column 1 become one line instead of multiple lines.
Any command is appreciate.
Many thanks.
