Extract Lines Between 2 patterns if exist...
Hello.

I am not having luck with sed or awk today.

$ echo "$BrackListFinal"
Code:
DSCF3649-DSCF3651_Brkt

I am trying to move all files after the parent directory that ends in '_Brkt'.

I tried;
#1
Code:
echo "$BrackListAllFinal" | awk '/^DSCF3602/, /_Brkt$/'

and...
#2
Code:
echo "$BrackListAllFinal" | awk '/^DSCF3602.*1/, /_Brkt$/'

Result (#1);
Code:
DSCF3602-DSCF3604_Brkt
DSCF3602.JPG    2014-07-21 13:15:34    On    1
DSCF3602.RAF    2014-07-21 13:15:34    On    1
DSCF3603.JPG    2014-07-21 13:15:34    On    2
DSCF3603.RAF    2014-07-21 13:15:34    On    2
DSCF3604.JPG    2014-07-21 13:15:34    On    3
DSCF3604.RAF    2014-07-21 13:15:34    On    3
DSCF3643-DSCF3645_Brkt

I want to start at the 1st occurance of each directory that ends in '_Brkt', and display all files listed after, and before the next '_Brkt' (if exists).

Thank you.
