Full Discussion: Extract lines between patterns

I was having some fun with doing this in sed to produce a script to pipe to shell. The idea is that each START / END segment is numbered and the text is piped to a shell function with the segment number (first one being 1).

Might not be worth anything...
Place the following into test.sed

Code:
1i\
seg=0
/##START##/b a
b
:a
s/.*$/seg=`expr $seg + 1`/p
n
s/^/echo '/p
:b
n
/##END##/b e
p
b b
:e
s/.*$/' | call_func $seg/p

Then you can get an idea of where this could go by doing:

Code:
sed -f test.sed my-input-file.txt

ddi_dma_nextseg

ddi_dma_nextseg(9F)					   Kernel Functions for Drivers 				       ddi_dma_nextseg(9F)

NAME

       ddi_dma_nextseg - get next DMA segment

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sys/ddi.h>
       #include <sys/sunddi.h>

       int ddi_dma_nextseg(ddi_dma_win_t win, ddi_dma_seg_t seg, ddi_dma_seg_t *nseg);

INTERFACE LEVEL

       This interface is obsolete. ddi_dma_nextcookie(9F) should be used instead.

PARAMETERS

       win	       A DMA window.

       seg	       The current  DMA segment or NULL.

       nseg	       A pointer to the next DMA segment to be filled in. If seg is NULL, a pointer to the first segment within the specified win-
		       dow is returned.

DESCRIPTION

       ddi_dma_nextseg() gets the next DMA segment within the specified window win. If the current segment is NULL, the first DMA  segment  within
       the window is returned.

       A  DMA segment is always required for a DMA window.  A DMA segment is a contiguous portion of a DMA window (see	ddi_dma_nextwin(9F)) which
       is entirely addressable by the device for a data transfer operation.

       An example where multiple DMA segments are allocated is where the system does not contain DVMA capabilities and the object may be  non-con-
       tiguous.  In this example the object will be broken into smaller contiguous DMA segments. Another example is where the device has  an upper
       limit on its  transfer  size  (for  example  an	8-bit  address	register)  and	has  expressed	this  in  the  DMA  limit  structure  (see
       ddi_dma_lim_sparc(9S) or ddi_dma_lim_x86(9S)). In this example the object will be broken into smaller addressable DMA segments.

RETURN VALUES

       ddi_dma_nextseg() returns:

       DDI_SUCCESS	       Successfully filled in the next segment pointer.

       DDI_DMA_DONE	       There is no next segment. The current segment is the final segment within the specified window.

       DDI_DMA_STALE	       win does not refer to the currently active window.

CONTEXT

       ddi_dma_nextseg() can be called from user or interrupt context.

EXAMPLES

       For an example, see ddi_dma_segtocookie(9F).
