It fails in two fashions. It only displays 9 lines after, not 10, it doesn't support overlapping ranges. Read more... (618 Bytes)	[reply] [d/l] [select]

The first is trivial: set the number to be the total number of context lines you want, including the matched pattern line. The second is a little trickier: ~~`perl -ne 'print if $.=/pattern/?1:2..10'`~~ ~~[download]~~ ~~In this case, it will print 10 lines after the match.~~ Update: so tricky, in fact, that you can't do it with the range operator. So there's no point in using $.. So you just do `perl -ne 'print if$c=/pattern/?11:$c&&$c-1'` [download] or any of the other solutions here. Sigh. One that doesn't require you to add one to the number you put in: `perl -ne 'print if(/pattern/?$c=10:$c--)>0'` [download] Caution: Contents may have been coded under pressure.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
