sed print range alongwith line numbers.
hi working with sed in a shell script
using sed to print a range of lines from a given file
for example to print lines 12-24 from a file
Code:
sed 12,24p <filename>

however i need to print the line numbers, alongwith the actual lines
would this be possible at all?


Thanks

I suppose you mean:

Code:
sed -n 12,24p infile

You could print them in separate lines:

Code:
sed -n '2,4{=;p;}' infile

Or use awk:

Code:
awk 'NR == 12, NR == 24 { print NR, $0 }' infile

SED: Print range, exclude regular expressions.

Ok, so I get that: sed -n '/START/,/END/p' file ...will print every line from START to END inclusive, but I don't want to see START or END. Apart from the obious: sed -n '/START/,/END/p' file | grep -v "START" | grep -v "END" ...is there a simpler way of doing this? Thanks as always! (2 Replies)
