Hmm, strange, anyway it looks like the mailing list stripped
everything in greater-than/less-than.

grep -A 3 -B 5 controller core1-confg

That would find all instances of "controller" in the file
"core1-confg" and print the three lines above, the line,
and the 5 lines after all instances of "controller".

I think that you can get this for DOS. It's native on
most *NIX systems (*BSD, Linux, etc).
