Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting sed & awk--get section of file based 2 params Post 302098238 by Andy Cook on Friday 1st of December 2006 12:02:25 PM

Ok...I figured out the only problem with the code
is that it can't read the $Param passed in. When I put some text instead of the param it does it fine. One problem I have is the param will have slashes in it (the param is a full path filename). Does anyone know how to get it to read the param with slashes in it. Here is what it will look like...

sed -n '/$PARAM1/,/$PARAM2/p'

With the params uncovered it is

sed -n '//directory/filename/,//directory/filename2/p'
