Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Grep from match to the end of file Post 302987109 by rbatte1 on Monday 5th of December 2016 11:47:20 AM

If you can get the line number from the file in some way, you can display the file from that point on with (amongst other things) a sed

If you were to do something like this, would it help?:-
Code:
last_line=$(grep -n "Your search text here" input_file | tail -1 | cut -f 1 -d ":")

((last_line=$last_line-1))               # To include current line in the next step

sed -n "$last_line,\$"p input_file



I hope that this is useful,
Robin
