Hello every one here I have a problem. I have a file in which there is some data like this

  • mango
  • apple
  • orange
  • grapes

When I run the command

 tr '\n' ' ' < file.txt

It works fine;
the output was:

 mango apple orange grapes

but I have another file which has data like this

  • 12029
  • SIDRASHAHID
  • 7(outof471)

but the above command is not working on it. Is the problem that the file has numerical data?

I have even tried sed but failed.

Can any one tell me if there is a way by which I can write this data into a single line?

    Converting a comment into an answer since it seems to be accurate:

    What are you seeing? Could the trouble be that the file has carriage returns in it (CRLF line endings from a Windows machine)? If so, you probably see ‘7(outof471)’ as the output.
