Hello Scrutinizer,

Thanks, it works that way.

The pat2 could be in more than line, so to could use your code, intead of have 32 elements in a line I changed it to 64 with xxd command, and without spaces.

So, your first code continue working, but I don't know why is not printing all patterns even they are in the file, I got this output:
Code:
$ awk -v pat="ff44.{6,18}321456.{5}" '
  {    b=p $0  }
  match(b,pat) {    print substr(b,RSTART,RLENGTH); sub(pat,x)
  }
  {    p=$0 FS  }' file2.txt
ff4400000232145601757
ff4400000332145601766
ff4400000432145601789

But the correct output should be (the patterns that have the sequence 01 and 05 are not being printed):
Code:
ff4400000132145600238
ff4400000232145601757
ff4400000332145601766
ff4400000432145601789
ff4400000532145601788

The input file is:
Code:

fmt

fmt(1)							      General Commands Manual							    fmt(1)

NAME

       fmt - format text

SYNOPSIS

       width] [file...]

DESCRIPTION

       The  command is a simple text formatter that fills and joins lines to produce output lines of (up to) the number of characters specified in
       the width option.  The default width is 72.  concatenates the arguments.  If none are given, formats text from the standard input.

       Blank lines are preserved in the output, as is the spacing between words.  does not fill lines beginning with a	period	for  compatibility
       with Nor does it fill lines starting with

       Indentation is preserved in the output and input lines with differing indentation are not joined (unless is used).

       can also be used as an in-line text filter for the command:

       reformats the text between the cursor location and the end of the paragraph.

   Options
       recognizes the following options:

	      Crown margin mode.
		    Preserve the indentation of the first two lines within a paragraph and align the left margin of each subsequent line with that
		    of the second line.  This is useful for tagged paragraphs.

	      Split lines only.
		    Do not join short lines to form longer ones.  This prevents sample lines of code, and other such "formatted" text, from  being
		    unduly combined.

	      Fill output lines to up to
		    width columns.

WARNINGS

       The width option is acceptable for BSD compatibility, but it may go away in future releases.
