Hello,
I don't understand, do you want to output:
1st line: the original input line
2nd line: " I want output in following format " <-- this line
3rd line and following: the input line broken by the patterns
Then just
f <- function(x, pattern) unlist(strsplit(x, pattern))
x <- "I love to watch movies  of Hollywood but should not be romantic...I
want to
      join you school but due to bad financial condition I cant.. "
x <- gsub("[[:space:]]+", " ", x)
pat <- c("but", "\\.\\.+")
out <- Reduce(f, c(x, pat))
out <- c("1st line", "2nd line", out)
