Subject: emacs regex to transform text of field1\nfield2\n into field1\tfield2\n etc
Date: Sat, 16 Feb 2019 11:23:57 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAAtGUhWJAr9zAb1Yk2ZR5m=DRC7kwTzzdkaYWb_0GYuDxDC1=w@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I have a text file of modem country codes like this:

T.35 Code
Country
00
Japan
07
Argentina
09
Australia
0A
Austria


But I want to transform the buffer to look like this:
T.35 Code Country
00              Japan
07              Argentina
09              Australia
0A              Austria

What regex would do that?
