The extra space had make a difference.....
Without extra space I was getting:
a a a . t . z a a a _ d . t . z b b b . t . z b b b _ d . t . z c c
c . t . z c c c _ d . t . z d d d . t . z e e e . t . z
With extra space I get the correct output: aaa.t.z aaa_d.t.z bbb.t.z
bbb_d.t.z ccc.t.z ccc_d.t.z ddd.t.z eee.t.z
Thanks!
