filter out a sequence from multiple lines line
Hi,

I have an unwanted string at random lines of my verilog (*.v) file.
Code:
(* abccddee *)  input A;
(* xyz  *)  input B;
(* 1234 *)  output C;

I want a clean file like this:
Code:
input A;
input B;
output C;

the unwanted string begins with "(*" and ends with "*)" at multiple lines.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

How about:

Code:
$ sed 's/(\*.*\*) //' verilog.v > verilog.v.new

Code:
cut -d \) -f2 < infile

Code:
awk -F ") " '{print $2}' infile
