I know in the second case , this can be done using cut command but many times it failed because of multiple space or another reasons. So I am looking for a reg expression which search first string, as soon as it match the first string , it start outputting the next string to terminal/stdout until it reach the second string. then new line. This process have to be repeated for whole document. -- ┌─────────────────────────┐ │ Narendra Sisodiya │ http://narendrasisodiya.com └─────────────────────────┘ -- l...@iitd - http://tinyurl.com/ycueutm
