egrep -v works great in the former case. What can help me in the
general
case to pull unchanged everything from
the <content> </content> tags regardless of lines? I don't think sed
will work, and Awk looks tricky.
Would this work?
{ cat <<"EOF"

sed -e 's/<content>/\n<content>\n/g' -e 's/<\/content>/\n<\/content>
\n/g' |
sed -n '/<content>/,/<\/content>/p'
