In Perl, something like this would do it:
perl -pi -e 'BEGIN{undef $/;} \ s/ALINE\nANOTHERLINE\nYETANOTHERLINE/ALINE/s;' /path/to/file
this is just a subsitution command , it just subsitutes ALIINE+ANOTHERLIN+YETANOTERLINE with ALINE
it could alo be done with sed : sed -i "s/ALINE\nANOTHERLINE\nYETANOTHERLINE/ALINE/g" script.txt
But what i really want to do is
if a certain pattern (A+B+C ) A B C is found then bellow pattern A delete pattern B and C
