Excel formatting a list
-1
I have a list of one column as follows:
x1
y1
[blank]
x2
y2
[blank]
x..
y..
[blank]
I need to get this formatted into:
x.. | y..
[blank]
What's the easiest way to accomplish this in excel or bash?

You have value X1, Y1, x & Y in Rows and you want to Format X,, I Y.. are in columns!!

The question appears to indicate that the goal is X and Y in separate, adjacent cells. The solution puts them in the same cell. Can you clarify?
