hi Chris,
thanks for quick response.
yes I didn't say it clear.
actually the latter as you mentioned is exactly what I want:
"
Or if you want to print lines from the "classifier-group" line until the
next matching line "xxx" packets, xxx bytes", use this command:
:g/classifier-group/.,/\d\d* packets, \d\d* bytes/p
(Which boils down to on each line matching classifier-group" print from
there until the next line, matching '\d\d packets, \d\d bytes' using the
:p command.)
"
to be more precise , I want to extract only those adjacent lines like
following,
classifier-group jnpr-VIDEO-TRAFFIC entry 2
0 packets, 0 bytes
but only if the packets, bytes are NON-zero. so I modified your command to:
:g/classifier-group/.,/[1-9]\d* packets, [1-9]\d* bytes/p
Looks I don't get anything after that, do I miss anything here?
thanks!
regards

usually I use :global to do that job and it works fine.
but the specialty here is, I want to search "across" lines:
I want to get ONLY lines containing either of these:
"classifier-group"
OR
xxx packets, xxx bytes
where xxx can be any NUMBERS.
so I use this after visual selection:
:'<,'>g/classifier-group\_.\{-}\d\d* packets, \d\d* bytes
but I only get these:
:'<,'>g/classifier-group\_.\{-}\d\d* packets, \d\d* bytes
I am not sure I understand, which of 2 different problems you are trying
to solve. If you wish to print lines containing either
"classifier-group" or "xxx packets, xxx bytes" use something like this
command:
:g/classifier-group\|\d\d* packets, \d\d* bytes
Or if you want to print lines from the "classifier-group" line until the
next matching line "xxx" packets, xxx bytes", use this command:
:g/classifier-group/.,/\d\d* packets, \d\d* bytes/p
(Which boils down to on each line matching classifier-group" print from
there until the next line, matching '\d\d packets, \d\d bytes' using the
:p command.)
