vim command for a search
how can i search each line for ROCT and ROCT1.ROCT1 will be always 1 line after ROCT.
Both the patterns will be found at the end of the line (in alternate lines)

<pattern file>
(rising edge-triggered flip-flop clocked by ROCT)
Endpoint: U_UFSMPHYCOREV10/U_UFSMPHYV10_DIGITAL/U_umr_top/U_sym_align
(rising edge-triggered flip-flop clocked by ROCT1)

What do you want to do with those lines after you find them?

The vim (or actually ex) command :g/ROCT/.,/ROCT1/p will print the line containing ROCT through the next line containing ROCT1 for each line that contains ROCT.

or you can just grep the file:

Code:
grep Roct $FILENAME
