We can achieve this by head and tail command also.

Code:
head -n 15 file | tail -n 6

how about

Code:
awk 'NR == 10, NR == 15 { print  $0 }' infile

you could use vi and then

Code:
:10,15w!/infile

or in perl

Code:
perl -ne 'print if 10..15' infile

Users who desire to have their .profile executed must explicitly do so in the crontab entry. Why?

The .profile file should be read when the user logs in. So, there should be no need to execute .profile file again in a cron job (since the cron job is run after the user logs in). Doesn't the cron require login from the user. Then, from where does the cron execute? Please help!! (1 Reply)
