Mário, I'll try to save you some time here. The script below should do exactly what you asked for help with. However, as you can see, sed is a ``write only'' language. If you're going to be maintaining this code, I would suggest rewriting it in something a bit more readable such as awk, or perl. -------- START OF FILE -------- \|<h4 class="post-title"><a href="http://tuxvermelho\.blogspot\.com/2006/08/bourne-shell.html";>Bourne Shell</a></h4>| b remove : next P d : remove s|<h4 class="post-title"><a href="http://tuxvermelho\.blogspot\.com/2006/08/bourne-shell.html";>Bourne Shell</a></h4>.*<p><a href="http://domain.com/2006/08/bourne-shell.html";>Sáb, 14 Abr 2007 12:31:07</a></p>|| t next N b remove -------- END OF FILE -------- If you want to fit the script on one line, replace the line feeds with semicolons (``;''). Doug Knight P.S. I would advise against making a habit of using ``$'' or any other character that has special meanings in regular expressions as a substitution delimiter, unless you enjoy driving yourself crazy when things don't work the way you expect them to.
