Thanks but i need to use awk dennis, and i think that i can't use getline zaxxon, because i have a config file like this:

Code:
CACHE SIZE{
cache_size=1000M
}

CRONTAB{
crontab=1 12 2 10 5
}

POLITICS{
100MF   doc,docx,xls    <5600K  02/04/02/02/02K
55MF    jpg     >300M   03/03/02/03/05K
65%F    mpg     =000M   02/02/02/05/05M
}

3 differents structures in my config file and besides this, i'm reading this config file with an awk script "read_conf.awk" like this:

Code:
BEGIN {FS = "\t"
print "Starting to read the config file"
num=0;
bucle=0;

}
# first regexp
/^[0-9]*[\%|M|K|G][C|F]\t[A-Za-z|\,]*\t[\<|\>|\=][0-9]*[K|M|G]\t[0-9][0-9]\/[0-9][0-9]\/[0-9][0-9]\/[0-9][0-9]\/[0-9][0-9][M|K|G]$/     {

instructions...

}

#second regexp
/^cache_size=[0-9]*[K|M|G]/     {

instructions...

}

#third regexp
/crontab=[0-9]*|\*\t[0-9]*|\*\t[0-9]*|\*\t[0-9]*|\*\t[0-9]*|\*/ {

instructions...

}

Everyone of this regexp read the values between {...}, but i need to read
with the head and the end, in this case: "POLITICS{" and "}"
The structure "head", "regexp", "end"

Code:
POLITICS{
100MF   doc,docx,xls    <5600K  02/04/02/02/02K
55MF    jpg     >300M   03/03/02/03/05K
65%F    mpg     =000M   02/02/02/05/05M
}

I explain me correctly?

Thanks
