I realized I was overthinking it a bit...
#!perl
my @lines;
while (<>) {
if (/a string/) {
print @lines;
}
push @lines, $_;
shift @lines if @lines > 700;
}
__END__
Read from STDIN, print from STDOUT. You can run this from the command line
like this:
perl find_a_string.pl input.txt > output.txt
Or save it to BBEdit's Unix Filters folder, and you can run it within
BBEdit on the current selection. Hold down Command as you run it to set
the filter options, and you can have it write the output to a new window.
