i have tried this but because the amount of dashs some more some less it will only do part of the last one

awk -F'[-]' '{print $2,$3,$4,$5,$6,$7,$8;print $0}' file

thanks

Hi
What about 'sed'?

sed -r 's%^[^-]*-(.*)-.*/(.*)/.*$%\1 \2\n&%' file

I see you already got a good answer
but here is a solution in awk instead of sed

awk -F '/' '{tw = split ($8, arr, "-"); i = 2; title = ""; while (i < tw) {title = title arr " "; ++i} print title $9 "\n" $0}' file

there is probably a better way to write this but it works

Hi @daustin
You reminded me that I did not remove the dashes in the titles. Thanks

sed -nr 'h;s%^[^-]*-(.*-).*/(.*)/.*$%\1\2%; s/-/ /gp;x;p' file
