awk还有另一种方法:

awk 'NR==16224, NR==16482' file

如果文件很大，最好在读取最后一行之后退出。这样，它就不会不必要地读取以下行:

awk 'NR==16224, NR==16482-1; NR==16482 {print; exit}' file

awk 'NR==16224, NR==16482; NR==16482 {exit}' file

您可以使用'vi'，然后使用以下命令:

:16224,16482w!/tmp/some-file

另外:

cat file | head -n 16482 | tail -n 258

编辑:-只是补充解释，您使用head -n 16482显示前16482行，然后使用tail -n 258显示第一次输出的最后258行。

那些想要计算头部、|、尾部组合的间隔的人是想多了。

下面是如何在不计算任何东西的情况下得到“16224 - 16482”范围:

cat file | head -n +16482 | tail -n +16224

解释:

The + instructs the head/tail command to "go up to / start from" (respectively) the specified line number as counted from the beginning of the file. Similarly, a - instructs them to "go up to / start from" (respectively) the specified line number as counted from the end of the file The solution shown above simply uses head first, to 'keep everything up to the top number', and then tail second, to 'keep everything from the bottom number upwards', thus defining our range of interest (with no need to compute an interval).

我写了一个叫做splitter的Haskell程序，它就是这样做的:阅读我发布的博客文章。

您可以使用该程序如下:

$ cat somefile | splitter 16224-16482

这就是它的全部。您将需要Haskell来安装它。只是:

$ cabal install splitter

这样就做完了。我希望这个程序对您有用。

sed -n '16224,16482 p' orig-data-file > new-file

其中16224、16482是起始行号和结束行号，包括。这是1索引。-n抑制将输入回显为输出，这显然不是你想要的;数字表示要执行以下命令的行范围;命令p输出相关的行。

我编写了一个小型bash脚本，您可以从命令行运行它，只要您更新PATH以包含它的目录(或者您可以将它放在PATH中已经包含的目录中)。

用法:$ pinch filename起始行结束行
