Match from one pattern to second occurrence of second pattern
Given an XML file that contains (NOT "consists of"):
I want to isolate and operate on the lines between <key>system.burn</key> and the second occurrence of <dict>, so:
Now, sed -n '/<key>system.burn<\/key>/,/<dict>/2 p' /etc/authorization would get me what I want... except I'm on a Mac, and so do not have GNU see. That gets me "invalid command code 2" I can delete the 2 and wind up with a valid pattern, but it only returns:
I don't want to just return the six lines after <key>system.burn</key> as I cannot be positive that there will always just be six lines.
I have a feeling awk is going to be the answer here, but I've got a long curve to climb with awk. I'm proud of myself for being able to print $2 or even $NF, so that tells you how advanced I am there :-P
