Alright, but the input specification keeps changing, are you sure this is that last exception?
Try:
Code:
awk -F'[.,:] *' ' # Use dot, command and colon as fields separator
/^[A-E]\./ { # Store the choices in array A with index the first field (letter A-E)
i=$1
$1=x
A[i]=$0
choice=1
next
}
choice {
A[i]=A[i] RS $0
}
/^Answer/{ # If line starts with "Answer" then print the valid choices
choice=0
for(i=2; i<=NF; i++)
print $i"." A[$i]
print x # Print an empty line
}
/^QUESTION/ # If line starts with "QUESTION" then print the question
' file
