Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting delete lines between patterns Post 302320693 by shamushamu on Thursday 28th of May 2009 03:23:55 PM

Sorry about that, vgersh99. I'm new to Linux and this forum.

I just found and fix my codes. I changed the pattern to:

Code:
awk '/^[1-9]/{ before-=1;after=2; next }


But I'm still very interested to see if anyone has a better solution than this. I believe this can be done using a few lines.
