Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers Cutting lines if conditions are met Post 302583511 by danieladna on Tuesday 20th of December 2011 03:19:24 PM

Thank you so much.
It seems to be working though I don't really follow how the program is working.
Is it comparing e.g.
Line 2 to Line 1. If there is no overlap, it keeps both lines and then compares line 3 to line 2. Then line 3 overlaps with line 2 so it kicks line 3 out and then compares line 4 to line 2?

Oh yes, and another question: How would the code be different if it were to consider all previous lines.
Thx
