I have a text file with the following format. The first line is the "KEY" and the second line is the "VALUE".
KEY 4048:1736 string
3
KEY 0:1772 string
1
KEY 4192:1349 string
1
KEY 7329:2407 string
2
KEY 0:1774 string
1
I need the value in the same line as of the key. So the output should look like this...
KEY 4048:1736 string 3
KEY 0:1772 string 1
KEY 4192:1349 string 1
KEY 7329:2407 string 2
KEY 0:1774 string 1
It will be better if I could use some delimiter like $
or ,
:
KEY 4048:1736 string , 3
How do I merge two lines into one?
paste
is good for this job:
paste -d " " - - < filename
