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.
What is the pathname of the "separate Input file"?
What is the format of the "separate Input file"?
What is the pathname of your "original XML file"?
What pathnames do you to be given to the output file (or files) that are to be created?
Show us a sample "separate Input file".
Show us the exact output file (or files) you want to create with the updated XML file you have provided in post #1 in this thread and the separate Input file that you will provide.

And, PLEASE, use CODE tags when displaying all sample input files, all sample output files, and all sample code segments!

imsettings-switch(1)													      imsettings-switch(1)

NAME

       imsettings-switch - Switch Input Method

SYNOPSIS

       imsettings-switch [ -hnqrx ] [ --no-update ] [ --quiet ] [ --restart ] [ --read-xinputrc ] [ --help ] [Input Method name | configuration
			 filename]

DESCRIPTION

       imsettings-switch switches Input Method which is managed under imsettings. Either Input Method name or configuration filename are  required
       unless --read-xinputrc option is specified to determine the target from $HOME/.config/imsettings/xinputrc or $xinputrcdir/xinputrc.

       below.

       -n --no-update
	      Do not update $HOME/imsettings/xinputrc. without this option, imsettings-switch will updates it with the targeted Input Method.

       -q --quiet
	      Do not show any messages except errors.

       -r --restart
	      Restart the given Input Method or one which is determined from xinputrc by --read-xinputrc option.

       -x --read-xinputrc
	      Determine the targeted Input Method from $HOME/imsettings/xinputrc or $xinputrcdir/xinputrc if not available.
