Full Discussion: Parsing file and extracting the useful data block
Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Parsing file and extracting the useful data block Post 65559 by arminder on Monday 7th of March 2005 08:37:53 AM
Old 03-07-2005
Sorry Guys, maybe I didn't put it correctly. The amount of "useful data" isn't known i.e. it may be 2 lines long or 10/20/100 i.e. no same occurences. Same goes for the "sample data" too. Its only that "start" and "end" is that can tell me where to start from and where to end.

Later I figured a way to print the block and so currently I am using following in awk file:

/^start/./^end/

Thereafter I grep out (grep -v) the start and end text.

Cheers

Arminder
