textfile=: 0 : 0
some stuff
some more stuff
stuff start string good stuff that I want to keep end string other stuff
more stuff
lots of stuff, more stuff, start string more good stuff that I need end string
string stuff
bad stuff stuff I don't care about start string even more stuff I want end
end string strange stuff
the end
)
getTagContents=: dyad define
'starttag endtag'=. x
(endtag&taketo)&.>@(starttag&E. <@((#starttag)&}.);.1 ]) y
)
> ('start string';'end string') getTagContents textfile
