Joining 2 Lines Based On First Field

Hi i have something like this in a file

This is more a text/file manipulation and I see that you have posted here on stackOverflow and people have replied, you might want to wait more for an appropriate answer there. This forum is dedicated to Bioinformatics and/or related ques. Also, for your answer, check this same post on unix forum

Cheers
