The spaces are removed by the gsub just before the tolower. Then, as you say, the host= and everything before is stripped off. I'm not sure what the second sub is supposed to do as it is looking for the \) string which does not exist in the line. And, the pattern could/should be anchored at line end using the $ sign.
And yes, it will stop 20 lines after the first search pattern is found.
