Alas, :g includes only the line matching "future.*ref". I want to

It would seem that what's wrong with the first command is simply that
:p, which is the command used by default by :g, by itself prints only
*one* line. If you instead explicitly use :p {count}, e.g.
":g/future.*ref.*\n.*\n/p 3", it seems to work.
Yes, but I want to collect the text that was *matched* by the pattern,
so, with ":g/future.*ref.*\n.*\n", I want the "future" until the end
of the next line. Actually, what I want is the whole line containing
the match, as well as the whole of the next line, but that is a simple
matter of adding a "^.*".
Well if you want only from "future" I don't know, but if instead you
want "the whole line containing
the match, as well as the whole of the next line"
":g/future.*ref.*\n.*\n/p 2" seems to give that result, and only if
there is a match (yes, I put "p 3" by mistake in the other mail).
Of course inelegant and inflexible, I don't know if there are better ways
