Hi:

One way is :

# echo $(

Hi (again):

Another (common) solution is to use 'tr' as:

# tr "\012" " " < file

Roopesh,

# cat file1 | xargs

Cheers,
Have fun!,
Raj.

Also: # cat file | tr "\n" " " ; printf "\n"

Hi James/RAj,

cat file|xargs is working fine.

Thank you very much for your quick response.

Cheers,

Hi (again):

If you like the:

# cat file1 | xargs

...do yourself and your server a favor: save a process and eliminate the 'cat':

# xargs < file1
