Sadly, web animations often exhibit screen tearing (strips

Michael,
Since Python can do so many things I should have expected this. Wasn't aware
of it before now.
Many thanks,

This shades towards plug-talk, except that it specifically
involves how we configure and use our Linux computers.
I use keyboards with clicky keys, sometimes in the same
room as devices with microphones.
I read the mostly excellent "A History of Fake Things on
the Internet" by Walter

Michael,
As I thought more about my need I recognized that a more comprehensive
scripting language than sed or awk was needed.
I don't know perl, so I'm developing a python script that's more
comprehensive.
My end result is a
Have a look at the IFS and RS variables in awk. IIRC, you can specify the
RS as '\n\n' and the IFS as '\n'. So printing the first line in a record
becomes ' { print $1 } ' once those variables are set.
ChatGPT came up with a similar answer.
Wow! I can find a use for those, if nobody else does. If they're

If your file structure is always groups of three lines, then you could
create a tab delimited file like so:
<< 'eof' paste - - -
line 1
line 2
line 1
line 2
line 1
line 2
eof
If the file structure is not that consistent, awk works well:
<< 'eof' awk -v FS='\n' -v RS='' '{print $1 "\t" $2

I have a file with two-line paragraphs and want to extract only the first
line of each paragraph to an output file. Sample input file:
line 1
line 2
line 1

I thought the awk 'next' statement would do this but my attempts failed.
For example:
