if you meant that you want to print the line with the regex and the next line to it then simply add last; in the first if section `if($found) { print "$line"; last; }` [download] this will get you the output `startdexdbnjcrk this when be shown` [download] UPDATE:and if you want to print more lines then youll be needing a counter and check each time with "if" weather the desired number of lines have been printed or not. if yes then exit. there be many shortcuts but i guess this one is the simplest for a newbie like me to understand	[reply] [d/l] [select]
