[14:48:15] <FatPhil> ha!
[14:48:17] <janrinok> some people are not very bright.....
[14:49:37] <FatPhil> I can only hope this whole malarky acts partially as an IQ filter.

[16:19:23] <FatPhil> can you use sed to concatenate all lines together? I was hoping for something like -e 's/$/ /'
[16:22:07] <inz> I usually use paste -d' ' -s
[16:22:18] <FatPhil> tr '\n' ' '
[16:22:22] <inz> works too
[16:31:57] <inz> sed -e '$ { H; g; s/\n/ /g; p; }; H; d }'
[16:32:00] <inz> or something like that
[16:32:51] <inz> my sed-fu is not too good thoigh
[16:35:59] <inz> Hmm, I suppose you can move that H before the $ to save a few chars
[16:38:47] <inz> So essentially collect all the lines into hold space and at the end put it back to pattern space and replace all the newlines away and print
[16:39:24] <inz> But that does mean that you will have the whole data in memory
[16:44:37] <inz> Actually that will yield in an additional space in the beginning
[16:45:20] <inz> Someone actually good at sed can make a better one: sed -e '1 { h; d; }; H; $ { g; s/\n/ /g; p; }; d'
[16:48:07] <inz> In short, sed is not the tool for the job :)
[17:06:00] <FatPhil> yup, it strips line endings, runs your code, and then puts them back. So if you want to remove them, you have to dick around monstrously.

[17:25:02] <t3> easier to use plain shell
[17:25:49] <t3> for i in $(cat file); do if [ ${i} != "\n" ]; then echo -n "${i} "; fi; done
[17:25:59] <FatPhil> if I ever need to combine sed with anything else, I just use perl. awk would be better, probably, but I don't know awk.
[17:26:38] <FatPhil> I was just trying to extract some lines from a file, extract a numeric field from it, and provide a total/count=average summary.
[17:27:26] <FatPhil> so a one-liner in perl
[17:28:24] <t3> i don't think awk handles newlines particularly well either
[17:52:01] <chromas> awk has faster regex

[20:13:17] <Runaway1956> Just BANG out of nowhere, they're all sick
[20:14:07] <Runaway1956> Wonder if that might explain my headache that has lingered for days now
[21:23:08] <FatPhil> In 2020, it ran around the brewpub like wildfire, we just shut absolutely everything down for 2 weeks. Literally everyone got it. Brewing/packing, admin/sales, bar/kitchen, the lot. And that wasn't even omicron.
[21:24:57] <FatPhil> The annoying thing is that we know the point of entry, and it's someone I've never trusted in any context. For some strange reason she manages to get positions of responsibility in various bars and shops, and yet is the least responsible person I know.

[22:19:18] <FatPhil> Van Gogh has some famous beard and tache paintings. Some military man, IIRC. Not sure about females, most of his subjects didn't particularly feature long hair. Could be a fashion thing.
