Folks, I need a suggestion or two for a dilemma that I am facing. I have a file which I am using grep to return a line with a particular search string and the following line. grep -A 1 string filename Here's the dilemma. There are multiple instincenses of the string so I have multiple two line returns. This is good, but what I really want is the second line only. Problem is that the second line has no common string on which to search, hence the search on line one. Anyone got any suggestions? -- Keith Watson kwatson at smed.yi.org Among the major impediments to discovery are not the ignorant but those with illusions of knowledge. - B. Alan Wallace
