extract x lines after a pattern - place each result in separate file
Hi all,
I have many files that have 1 or more occurrences of the information I want. There are two distinct sets of information. I want get this info and place each occurrence in its own file.
The 3 lines before one set are
this grid
00 01 02
16 17 18
**40 lines of code I want to place in file this_xx.out**
The 3 lines before the second set are
that grid
00 01 02
16 17 18
**40 lines of code I want to place in file that_xx.out**
I do not want to have the 00 01 02 and 16 17 18 in the .out file.
The information in the next 40 lines is a matrix of hex number so there is nothing to hook onto in there to get the info.
Thanks for the help

fnmatch
FNMATCH(3) Linux Programmer's Manual FNMATCH(3)
NAME
fnmatch - match filename or pathname
SYNOPSIS
#include <fnmatch.h>
int fnmatch(const char *pattern, const char *string, int flags);
DESCRIPTION
The fnmatch() function checks whether the string argument matches the pattern argument, which is a shell wildcard pattern.
The flags argument modifies the behavior; it is the bitwise OR of zero or more of the following flags:
FNM_NOESCAPE
If this flag is set, treat backslash as an ordinary character, instead of an escape character.
FNM_PATHNAME
If this flag is set, match a slash in string only with a slash in pattern and not by an asterisk (*) or a question mark (?)
metacharacter, nor by a bracket expression ([]) containing a slash.
FNM_PERIOD
If this flag is set, a leading period in string has to be matched exactly by a period in pattern. A period is considered to be
leading if it is the first character in string, or if both FNM_PATHNAME is set and the period immediately follows a slash.
FNM_FILE_NAME
This is a GNU synonym for FNM_PATHNAME.
FNM_LEADING_DIR
If this flag (a GNU extension) is set, the pattern is considered to be matched if it matches an initial segment of string which is
followed by a slash. This flag is mainly for the internal use of glibc and is implemented only in certain cases.
FNM_CASEFOLD
If this flag (a GNU extension) is set, the pattern is matched case-insensitively.
FNM_EXTMATCH
If this flag (a GNU extension) is set, extended patterns are supported, as introduced by 'ksh' and now supported by other shells.
The extended format is as follows, with pattern-list being a '|' separated list of patterns.
'?(pattern-list)'
The pattern matches if zero or one occurrences of any of the patterns in the pattern-list match the input string.
'*(pattern-list)'
The pattern matches if zero or more occurrences of any of the patterns in the pattern-list match the input string.
'+(pattern-list)'
The pattern matches if one or more occurrences of any of the patterns in the pattern-list match the input string.
'@(pattern-list)'
The pattern matches if exactly one occurrence of any of the patterns in the pattern-list match the input string.
'!(pattern-list)'
The pattern matches if the input string cannot be matched with any of the patterns in the pattern-list.
RETURN VALUE
Zero if string matches pattern, FNM_NOMATCH if there is no match or another nonzero value if there is an error.

For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see attributes(7).

CONFORMING TO
