Re^2: read multi lines of a file in perl

Hi Richb, Thanks for ur reply.. But i still have a small problem.. as this is able to check for only one loop and not repeated loop.. eg

 
process lkhls
ksjhfk
end process
process kfhls
kfh
end process
[download]

i want output as

ksjhfk
kfh
[download]

Thanks....

flipflop operator to the rescue: `perl -lne 'print if /^process/ .. /^end process/ and not /^process/ and not /^end process/' process lkhls ksjhfk end process process kfhls kfh end process` [download] apparently does what you want: `ksjhfk kfh` [download] []s, HTH, Massa (κς,πμ,πλ)	[reply] [d/l] [select]
