Guys, he wants to grep by region. Ashwin, don't know what version of egrep you have, but you can give this a try: egrep -AN PUN filename Where N=Number of lines you want to display after the match is found. You could also write a small perl script to do this, but that would be an overkill. Regards, NMK. Add more friends to your messenger and enjoy!
