Let's say I want to get the text between the first match of "start_" and the first of "_end", no matter it it's across same or multiple lines. Don't include the matches.
Example text 1:
This is a start_text with start_and some_end text with_end
out text 1:
text with start_and some
Example text 2:
This is a
start_text with
start_and some_end
text with_end
out text 2:
text with
start_and some
I've seen lots of answer but they are line-focused, not file-focused. Any kind of tool or command will do as long as it's console-based.
