drats. I should have read my message more carefully. I'm sorry. I was
using the file /tmp/sedawk to test the commands, and had meant to remove
it from the script. try removing it. Apologies. I should have been more
careful.
The correct line should be:
awk 'BEGIN{i=0;}{if ($1 ~ /^BEGMF/) i=1; if ($1 ~ /^ENDMF/) i=0; if (i==0) print}' |
sed 's/^ENDMF;//g' > /tmp/temp.plt
sorry.
