I have to search for text strings in files and then do something with

In the first requirement I think I have it beat, but I am lost on the
second. I thought I might be able to search for the line I need and
store its line number as n, then read the next n+[1...4] lines and
store them.
How does one accomplish that, or is there a better approach?
What you described in English sounds just right to me. How about posting
some code, and somebody may be able to point you in the right direction.
