Hi.

For the sample data file "data1":
Code:
Document * of 20
Hello

=====
Document one of 20

World

=====
Document 44 of 20

Now is

=====
Document "Climatology Review" in of 20

with no Documents at the beginning of the time.

=====

I ran this script:
Code:
#!/bin/sh

# @(#) s1       Demonstrate csplit.

F=${1-data1}

csplit -k -s -z $F "/^Document.*of/" {\*}

echo
for file in xx*
do
        echo
        echo "File: $file"
        head -3 $file |
        cat -n
done

exit 0

To produce this:
Code:
% ./s1


File: xx00
     1  Document * of 20
     2  Hello
     3

File: xx01
     1  Document one of 20
     2
     3  World

File: xx02
     1  Document 44 of 20
     2
     3  Now is

File: xx03
     1  Document "Climatology Review" in of 20
     2
     3  with no Documents at the beginning of the time.

This assumes that the lines "=====" are visual sugar ... cheers, drl

Plucene::Document::Field(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation			     Plucene::Document::Field(3pm)

NAME

       Plucene::Document::Field - A field in a Plucene::Document

SYNOPSIS

	       my $field = Plucene::Document::Field->Keyword($name, $string);
	       my $field = Plucene::Document::Field->Text($name, $string);

	       my $field = Plucene::Document::Field->UnIndexded($name, $string);
	       my $field = Plucene::Document::Field->UnStored($name, $string);

DESCRIPTION

       Each Plucene::Document is made up of Plucene::Document::Field objects. Each of these fields can be stored, indexed or tokenised.

FIELDS

   name
       Returns the name of the field.

   string
       Returns the value of the field.

   is_stored
       Returns true if the field is or will be stored, or false if it was created with "UnStored".

   is_indexed
       Returns true if the field is or will be indexed, or false if it was created with "UnIndexed".

   is_tokenized
       Returns true if the field is or will be tokenized, or false if it was created with "UnIndexed" or "Keyword".

METHODS

   Keyword
	       my $field = Plucene::Document::Field->Keyword($name, $string);

       This will make a new Plucene::Document::Field object that is stored and indexed, but not tokenised.

   UnIndexed
	       my $field = Plucene::Document::Field->UnIndexded($name, $string);

       This will make a new Plucene::Document::Field object that is stored, but not indexed or tokenised.

   Text
	       my $field = Plucene::Document::Field->Text($name, $string);

       This will make a new Plucene::Document::Field object that is stored, indexed and tokenised.

   UnStored
