You could try this for a input-file called input<\/code>:<\/p>\n

 csplit -f tempfile input '\/-\/+1' '{*}'; paste tempfile*\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
With csplit<\/code> we generate one file for each “column” in the desired output (tempfile01<\/code>, tempfile02<\/code>, …).
\nNext, we merge these temporary files. With the given sample input, the output of the above command is:<\/p>\n
jim sally   bill    jerry   \nbob sue     -       curly   \n-   ed              phil    \n    -               -   \n<\/code><\/pre>\n
It might be a good idea to add rm tempfile*<\/code> to do the necessary cleanup.<\/p>\n
csplit -f tempfile input '\/-\/+1' '{*}'; paste tempfile* > output; rm tempfile*\n<\/code><\/pre>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
