It seems that you need a combination of IF and NEXTLINE and JOIN stages: ... | IF SUBSTR 1.2 of W1 == /++/ & SUBSTR 1.2 OF NEXTLINE \== /++/ THEN JOIN 1' , ...
those a NBI (Not Built In) stages, of course. Is it Friday yet? ;-) Wouldn't it be nice if it were that simple - that Pipes could just sort of figure out "what we meant" and do it? In a perfect world... But then we'd all be out of work (except as Pipes "what we meant" stage debuggers, and that would not be a job anyone would want!

I've done some simplistic parsing of a file that contains only the MCSs, but it doesn't handle skipping the actual element data and is a little iffy on quotes and comments. Comments aren't essential (I should only ever see them inside the MCS and on a single line), but I do have to worry about periods inside quotes falling at the end of a record: ++HFS(WHATEVER) LINK('/long/url/here/with/lots.of.stuff/with.dots.in.it. continued') .
