Sorry, but I don't understand the request. You give us the input & desired output but what logic should be applied to the input? Maybe I'm being stupid, but what is an NR other than an awk option? I can easily add a few numbers but your request doesn't give me anything to really go on. Sorry.

Do you mean:-
  1. The first column from the first line : The second column from the 12th line plus ten
  2. Display next 22 lines
  3. The first column from the 12th line : The second column from the 33rd line plus ten

One is confused and wonders.Smilie

NAME
lr_environment - Export Lire configuration in shell script form SYNOPSIS
eval `lr_environment` DESCRIPTION
The lr_environment command is used to import the Lire configuration in Lire shell scripts. All of Lire configuration variables will be written in a format that can be evaled by the shell. Shell scripts don't usually have to use that command, since it is done by the defaults file sourced by each command. The old names used by when the configuration was done in shell script are also exported by this script for backward compatibility. AUTHOR
