Perhaps, if you gave us an example of your actual input, including 
relevant requests, and the output you expect to see, it would be 
easier for us to understand what you are trying to do.

Best guess, based on incomplete information: could this be what you 
want?

     .nop   xxx  yyyy  wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
     .nop   xxx  yyyy  wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
     .nop   xxx  yyyy  wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww\c
     .nop                 wwwwwwwwwwwwwww
     .nop   xxx  yyyy  wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
