Remove some content from a verilog file

Hi,

I have a verilog file which looks like

Code:
module xyz (x, y, z, a, b, c);
input x;
input y;
input z;
output a;
output b;
output c;

initial begin
...
end

always ...
...

endmodule

What i want is to create a dummy of verilog module without the content so it should look like

Code:
module xyz (x, y, z, a, b, c);
input x;
input y;
input z;
output a;
output b;
output c;

endmodule

Any input is valuable. Thanks.

It looks like just matching input, output, module, and endmodule should catch all the relevant lines...

Code:
egrep "(input|output|module|endmodule)[ \t]" input > output

Corona688,

This does some of it. In the verilog file, the module definition could have

Code:
module xyz (
x,
y,
z,
a,
b,
c
);

instead of just

Code:
module xyz (x, y, z, a, b, c);

I need to capture the complete module where it ends with a ');'

What other things like that might slip it up? Show representative input and output, not idealized input and output.

Only the module can slip up. The input and output should be left as it is

Code:
module xyz (
x,
y,
z, a, b, c);

input x;
inputy;
output a;
output b;

endmodule

1) Turn all newlines into spaces, and semicolons into newlines. This will fix the line problem.
2) grep for the things you want.
Code:
tr '\n;' ' \n' <input | egrep "(input|output|module|endmodule)[ \t]" > output
