Removing last two lines
I have an awk script that replaces ">" with

[CODE]
%
%>

%< SOURCE", ++i
%( PHASE 1", i
[CODE]

I use the following script

Code:
/>/ {
   if ( FNR > 1 ) {
      print "%)"
      print "%>"
   }
   print ""
   print "%< SOURCE", ++i
   print "%( PHASE 1", i
}

This produces

Code:
%< SOURCE 64
%( PHASE 1 64
160 30.9858 30.9858
163 29.8366 29.8366
166 28.631 28.631
169 27.3611 27.3611
172 26.0695 26.0695
175 24.6813 24.6813
178 23.1547 23.1547
181 21.4705 21.4705
184 19.4407 19.4407
187 16.9838 16.9838
190 13.9672 13.9672
193 10.3105 10.3105
196 5.92347 5.92347
199 0 0
%)
%>

%< SOURCE 65
%( PHASE 1 65


Hence at the end I end up with

Code:
%< SOURCE 65
%( PHASE 1 65

which I want to remove. Any ideas on how can I do this please?

---------- Post updated at 07:14 AM ---------- Previous update was at 06:52 AM ----------

Is it possible to do it in awk and include it in the awk script?

Not sure I understand.

Can you not just say:

Code:
/>/ {
   if ( FNR > 1 ) {
      print "%)"
      print "%>"
   } else {
     print "%< SOURCE", ++i
     print "%( PHASE 1", i
  }
}

No because this will remove

Code:
%< SOURCE ++i
%( PHASE 1 i

at the beginning of each block. The last one is ok though
Code:
%)
%>
157 30.9858 30.9858
160 29.8366 29.8366
163 28.631 28.631

193 10.3105 10.3105
196 5.92347 5.92347
199 0 0
%)
%>

However I should get

Similar to what you had originally:
Code:
awk '
  />/ { if ( NR > 1) {
          print "%)"
          print "%>"
          print ""
        }

        P = 1
        next
  }

  P {
     print "%< SOURCE", ++i
     print "%( PHASE 1", i
     P = 0
  }
  1
