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; }
this will get you the output
startdexdbnjcrk this when be shown

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
