Sed version is 4.1.2 of GNU

after using awk command---output file content is-----

spotlight -verilog file.v -$regression -batch -policy=xyz -rules ABC,abc,pqr -wd
ir ../other_files

now i want ABC,abc,pqr only.

it is sure that it will come after -rules but -rules position is not fix in the line so the field can vary for different file so i have to search -rule then extract the next strings till next space.

So Reply me with the suitable solution

Thanks

@gprashant

Thanks for reply.
i know about this solution.
But problem is string field position is not fix for different file.
so i can not use field operator $5. it may be five in some cases it may be anything.

so i have to search string and then print the next string till the space.

Thanks
