Lynx Grep Pattern Match 2 conditions Print from Start to End
I am working on a scraping project and I am stuck at this tiny grep pattern match.

Sample text :

Code:
FPA List. FPA List. FPA List. FPA List. FPA List. FPA List. FPA List. FPA List. 
ABC Personal Planning

[67]Catherine K. Wat
[68]Cath Wat
[69]Catherine K. Wat
[70]Catherine K. Wat

IFRAME:
[68]http://www.google.com

In the text above, I want to grab the following data :

Code:
[67]Catherine K. Wat
[68]Cath Wat
[69]Catherine K. Wat
[70]Catherine K. Wat

I did somthing like this :
Code:
kkiran@abc:~$ cat FILE | grep -A 5 'Personal Planning'

But the number of contacts varies , so instead of using -A 5, I want to grab everything before IFRAME starting at 'Personal Planning'. I am sure it is a one line command but I cannot find the right flags for it.

Any help is appreciated..

Using grep to print just the pattern match

Hi all, Is it possible for grep to output just the pattern match and not the whole line when it comes across a match? I know you can adjust the number of trailing or leading lines that are printed, but am yet to find anything that outputs just the pattern match. Cheers, Tim (5 Replies)

FPA(4)							   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 						    FPA(4)

NAME

     fpa, fea -- device drivers for DEC FDDI controllers

SYNOPSIS

     device fpa
     device fea

     FreeBSD only:
     device fddi

DESCRIPTION

     The fpa and fea device drivers provide support for the DEC DEFPA PCI FDDI Controller and the DEC DEFEA EISA FDDI Controller, respectively.
     All variants of either controller are supported including the DAS and SAS configurations.

DIAGNOSTICS

     fea%d: error: desired IRQ of %d does not match device's actual IRQ (%d)  The device probe detected that the DEFEA board is configured for a
     different interrupt than the one specified in the kernel configuration file.

     fea%d: error: memory not enabled! ECU reconfiguration required  The device probe found that no device memory had been configured on the
     DEFEA.  Although the DEFEA can be configured with no device memory, this driver requires a minimum of 1K device memory to be set up.  The ECU
     (EISA Configuration Utility) will need to be run to change the settings.

CAVEATS

     Normally, the device driver will not enable the reception of SMT frames.  However if the IFF_LINK1 flag is set, the device driver will enable
     the reception of SMT frames and pass them up to the Berkeley Packet Filter for processing.
