Hello ,

I have the folloiwing command :
sed -n "$var,$final w $destfile" $sourcefile

where :
$var - $final represent the range of line numbers to be written in $destfile

However I require this command to work in a loop for which i need the sed command to keep appending the output to the $destfile .

Any Help ??
Thanks in advance ,
