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
