joinlines

= joinlines

Simple utility to join lines from a command output.

----
$ printf 'a\nb\nc\n'
a
b
c

$ printf 'a\nb\nc\n' | joinlines
a b c

$ printf 'a\nb\nc\n' | joinlines ,
a,b,c

$ printf 'a\nb\nc\n' | joinlines :
a:b:c

$ printf 'a\nb\nc\n' | joinlines ' , '
a , b , c
----

Simpler than `paste`, and allows for separators that span multiple characters (e.g. `' , '`):

----
$ printf 'a\nb\nc\n' | paste -sd,
a,b,c

$ printf 'a\nb\nc\n' | paste -sd' , '
a b,c

$ printf 'a\nb\nc\n' | joinlines ,
a,b,c

$ printf 'a\nb\nc\n' | joinlines ' , '
a , b , c
