Displaying text till pattern match found in a line
Hi All,
From the below line if we want to display all the text till found pattern dot/. I was trying with the below code but couldn't able
to print text before the pattern. it display texts which is found after pattern.
Code:
awk '/[Pp]assed/{print;getline;print}' file_name | sed 's/^[^:]*. *//'

input line from the file_name looks like
Code:
U12-C02: Software checks is passed. (Latest Software version : IED-2011-S : upgrade_01 4.13.2 (4.10.15_TREP-RT_13.31))

Currently it is displaying like this :
Code:
Software checks is passed. (Latest Software version : IED-2011-S : upgrade_01 4.13.2 (4.10.15_TREP-RT_13.31))

expected output should be like this :
Code:
U12-C02: Software checks is passed.

Many Thanks,
Optimus

roff2text

roff2text(1)						      General Commands Manual						      roff2text(1)

NAME

       roff2text - transform roff code into text mode

SYNOPSIS

       roff2text [groffer_option...] [--] [filespec...]
       roff2text -h | --help
       roff2text -v | --version

       The  options  -v and --version print the version information of the program to standard output and exit.  The options -h and --help print a
       usage information of the program to standard output and stop the program instantly.

       All other options are assumed to be groffer options.  They are internally passed to groffer.  They override the behavior  of  the  program.
       The options are optional, they can be omitted.

       The  filespec arguments correspond to the filespec arguments of groffer.  So they are either the names of existing, readable files or - for
       standard input, or the name of a man page or a groffer(1) man page search pattern.  If no filespec is specified standard input  is  assumed
       automatically.

DESCRIPTION

       roff2text transforms roff code into text mode.  Print the result to standard output.

       There are more of these programs for generating other formats of roff input.

       roff2dvi(1)
	      is for dvi mode.

       roff2html(1)
	      generates html output.

       roff2pdf(1)
	      outputs pdf mode.

       roff2ps(1)
	      prints PostScript format to standard output.

       roff2x(1)
	      prints the output in the groff device X that is suitable for programs like gxditview(1) or xditview(1).
