Extract strings from XML files and create a new XML
Hello everybody,
I have a double mission with some XML files, which is pretty challenging for my actual beginner UNIX knowledge. I need to extract some strings from multiple XML files and create a new XML file with the searched strings..
The original XML files contain the source code for creating PDF files. I write here an abstract example and explain after the challenge.
So, the UNIX script should extract the Header, the entire rows that contain 'Belgian' and 'American' and the Footer and put them in a new XML file. The list with the searched strings is provided through a separate Input file. I hope I managed to create a clear requirement. Please let me know if any extra information is needed.
Thank you very much,
Milano
