Process lines containing can send the matching lines to a new document. You can 
use grep for the pattern, but indeed not copy specific subpatterns. I was 
mistaken, the ‘Process duplicate lines’ does accept subpatterns. Time for a 
feature request, I think.

You can of course use a two-stage process: Modify first to get related 
information on a single line, then copy to a new file, and finally remove what 
is not needed.

OK, that can be improved.
