Hey,
is there a easy way to copy the content between 2 unique keywords in a .txt
file?
example.txt
1, 2, 3, 4
#keyword1
3, 4, 5, 6
2, 3, 4, 5
#keyword2
4, 5, 6 ,7
If "copying" does mean copy it to another file, and you are not obliged
to use Python, this is unmatched in awk:
Apfelkiste:Tests chris$ cat kw.txt
1, 2, 3, 4
#keyword1
3, 4, 5, 6
2, 3, 4, 5
#keyword2
4, 5, 6 ,7
Apfelkiste:Tests chris$ awk '/keyword1/,/keyword2/' kw.txt
#keyword1
3, 4, 5, 6
2, 3, 4, 5
#keyword2
Consequently, awk '/keyword1/,/keyword2/' kw.txt > kw_copy.txt
would write it out to kw_copy.txt
Beware that between the two slashes there are regexps, so if you have
metacharacters in your keywords, you need to quote them.
