How to delete a particular word on particular line with sed?
I have a file from which I am trying to delete a particular word on a particular line.
I am trying to delete the first line only if it contains the word NEW. I am also trying to delete the last line only if it contains the word NEW. I don't want any other lines deleted. I have tried
but that deletes more than the first line. I've also tried
but I don't care for that command as it would delete even if the word was not NEW.
It is going to be used on multiple files in a script and I need to make sure that no matter what is in between the last NEW and the first NEW are always deleted. And the words on the first and last line will not always be "NEW."
How would I delete everything on a line in a file prior to a specific word?
In other words, I have a file that contains the word SEARCH on various lines and would like to delete everything prior to SEARCH on all lines. Thanks for that help (2 Replies)

PAPS(1) General Commands Manual PAPS(1)NAME
paps - UTF-8 to PostScript converter using Pango
SYNOPSIS
paps [options] files...
DESCRIPTION
paps reads a UTF-8 encoded file and generates a PostScript language rendering of the file. The rendering is done by creating outline curves
through the pango ft2 backend.
OPTIONS
These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is
included below.
--landscape
Landscape output. Default is portrait.
--columns=cl
Number of columns output. Default is 1.
Please notice this option isn't related to the terminal length as in a "80 culums terminal".
--font=desc
Set the font description. Default is Monospace 12.
--rtl Do right to left (RTL) layout.
--paper ps
Choose paper size. Known paper sizes are legal, letter and A4. Default is A4.
Postscript points
Each postscript point equals to 1/72 of an inch. 36 points are 1/2 of an inch.
--bottom-margin=bm
Set bottom margin. Default is 36 postscript points.
--top-margin=tm
Set top margin. Default is 36 postscript points.
--left-margin=lm
Set left margin. Default is 36 postscript points.
--right-margin=rm
Set right margin. Default is 36 postscript points.
--gutter-width=gw
Set gutter width. Default is 40 postscript points.
--help Show summary of options.
--header
Draw page header for each page.
--markup
Interpret the text as pango markup.
--lpi Set the lines per inch. This determines the line spacing.
--cpi Set the characters per inch. This is an alternative method of specifying the font size.
--stretch-chars
Indicates that characters should be stretched in the y-direction to fill up their vertical space. This is similar to the texttops
behaviour.
