combining cat output and cutting rows

Shell Programming and Scripting
1

I have a file that contain the following.

-D HTTPD_ROOT="/usr/local/apache"
-D SERVER_CONFIG_FILE="conf/httpd.conf"

I want a shell script, so that after cat filename and apply the shell script I should get the output as follows.

/usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf

ie
cat filename | <shell_script>

2 
 sed -e 's/[-[A-Z_*=]//g;s/"//g'  test.txt |sed 'N;s/\n /\//'
/usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf

Thanks
Sha
