My text file contains a line that consists of a group,e.g., 50005, following the group number, there are one more user name, e.g., usera, userb. Each group and user name is separated by a newline.

The above script sorta does what I want, which is to separate the groups and list the user names like: usera, userb, userc each entire group members separated by a newline.
