hi
say i have a text file
line1
line2
line3
line4
line5
line6
abc
line8 <---to be delete
line9 <---to be delete
line10 <---to be delete
line11 <---to be delete
line12 <---to be delete
line13 <---to be delete
xyz
line15
line16
line17
line18
I wish to delete lines that are in between 'abc' and 'xyz' and print
the rest of the lines. Which is the best way to do it? Should i get
everything into a list, get the index of abc and xyz, then pop the
elements out? or any other better methods?
thanks
