Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting How to remove answers and explanation parts from a text file with lots of questions.? Post 303041672 by MadeInGermany on Monday 2nd of December 2019 05:24:39 AM

To avoid an initial newline one can test for NR>1 or del==1:
Code:
awk '/^Answer:/{del=1} (del==1 && /^NO\./){del=0; print ""} del==0' test.txt

Here comes a portable sed solution:
Code:
sed '/^Answer:/{
  :Loop
  $d; N; /\nNO\./!bLoop
  s/.*\(\n\)/\1/
}' test.txt

GNU sed needs $d, to not default-print the last "Answer:" section.
A multi-liner easiliy supports a Unix sed.
