in reply to Regex copy and paste help

What have you tried so far? It seems to me the logic would work something like this:

read a line into an array, store it read the next line into an array if it only has one field preceded by whitespace append that field to the second field of the previous array else print out the stored array put this array into storage at the end, print the stored array

Coding that should be fairly simple. I don't know if the third line with only the first field is significant, so you may need to add some code to handle that too.
