Hello,
I am on a Mac and trying to clean up some monthly files with a very simple SED:
sed '3,10d;/<ACROSS>/,$d' input.txt > output.txt
(from the input, delete lines 3 - 10; then delete from the line containing <ACROSS> to the end of the file)
then output to output.txt

GERMINATE-PKG-DIFF(1) Ubuntu General Commands Manual GERMINATE-PKG-DIFF(1)
NAME
germinate-pkg-diff -- compare seeds against currently installed packages
SYNOPSIS
germinate-pkg-diff [-l file] [-m {i|r|d}] [-a arch] [seeds]
DESCRIPTION
germinate-pkg-diff compares the expansion of a list of seed packages against the set of packages installed on the current system. When con-
structing seeds for a software distribution, it can be used to iteratively find packages installed on developers' systems that should be
included in the seeds.
A list of seeds against which to compare may be supplied as non-option arguments. Seeds from which they inherit will be added automatically.
The default is 'desktop'.
OPTIONS
-l, --list file
Read the list of currently installed packages from file. The default is to read the output of dpkg --get-selections, and any supplied
file should be in the same format.
-m, --mode {i|r|d}
Set the output mode as follows:
i Show the dpkg selections needed to install just these seeds. List unseeded but installed files as ``deinstall'', and seeded but
uninstalled files as ``install''.
r List unseeded but installed files as ``install'', and seeded but uninstalled files as ``deinstall''.
d Show the differences between the packages specified by the seeds and the list of installed packages, in a somewhat diff-like for-
mat.
-S, --seed-source source,...
Fetch seeds from the specified sources. The default is http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/seeds/.
-s, --seed-dist dist
Fetch seeds for distribution dist. The default is ubuntu.precise.
-d, --dist dist,...
Operate on the specified distributions. The default is precise. Listing multiple distributions may be useful, for example, when exam-
ining both a released distribution and its security updates.
-a, --arch arch
Operate on architecture arch. The default is i386.
BUGS
--mode r is useless as dpkg --set-selections input.
