Theo, Randall thanks really a lot... grep worked for me, but I also enjoyed
reading man pages of awk and csplit and trying to figure them out too ;) That
definitely helps me a lot!
In fact, I customized the code in a way to get the output in a
more "plottable" way, but even then I'll still need to use these tools to
work with that!
Thank you very much again!
Sergey
