I'd still suggest awk, since it allows you to do rational if/then/else statements in code blocks instead of being completely restricted to inscrutiable line-matching regular expressions. It has those, too, but you get to do what you want with them Smilie

But your outline here is still incomplete -- we still have no idea what the contents of your array are, hence, what relation your output has to your input..
