It is definetely an issue for the 'awk' utility.
Here is a working solution, although it could be done somehow shorter
using patterns (I do not recall how they worked.
But I have tested this one, it does the job.
#awk -f prog.awk <yourfile>
prog.awk should contain:
{
if( $1 == "FileNo:") { printf( "%s%s ", $1 , $2) }
if( $1 == "Name:") { printf( "%s ", $2) }
if( $1 == "Address1:") { printf( "%s ", $2) }
if( $1 == "Address2:") { printf( "%s", $2) }
if( $1 == "Phone:") { printf( "\n%s\n", $2) }
}
