Hi Don,

Sorry for the confusion.

Field 1 refers the line numbers. I just kept those for referring lines. Please treat that only field 2 is there in the actual file.

I want to remove a block of lines from 8 to 13, which are the duplicate of the lines 1 to 6.

From lines 1 to 6 ; got repeated twice. That should be kept as it is.

Finally my output should look like:

Code:
1 abc
2 123
3 ;
4 rao
5 bell
6 ;
7 call

viewperl

VIEWPERL(1)							   User Commands						       VIEWPERL(1)

NAME

       viewperl - quickly view syntax highlighted Perl code

SYNOPSIS

       viewperl [OPTION]... FILE...

DESCRIPTION

       View a Perl source code file, syntax highlighted.

       -c, --code=CODE
	      view CODE, syntax highlighted

       -l, --lines
	      display line numbers

       -L, --no-lines
	      supress display of line numbers (default)

       -m, --module=FILE
	      consider FILE the name of a module, not a file name

       -n, --name
	      display the name of each file (default)

       -N, --no-name
	      supress display of file names (implied by --no-reset)

       -p, --pod
	      display inline POD documentation (default)

       -P, --no-pod
	      hide POD documentation (line numbers still increment)

       -r, --reset
	      reset formatting and line numbers each file (default)

       -R, --no-reset
	      supress resetting of formatting and line numbers

       -s, --shift=WIDTH
	      set tab width (default is 4)

       -t, --tabs
	      translate tabs into spaces (default)

       -T, --no-tabs
	      supress translating of tabs into spaces

       --help display this help and exit

       Note that module names should be given as they would appear after a Perl `use' or `require' statement.  `Getopt::Long', for example.

       Each string given using -c is considered a different file, so line number and formatting resets will apply.
