Given a file with several lines and then a line of "----------------------------", how would I print everything until the end of the file? In other words I need to use a UNIX script to print everything below the "----------------------------":
Working file: build/postinstall

This should do it for you.


awk '

{
if (( $0 !~ /-+/ ) && ( !flag )) {
next
} else {
print
flag = 1
getline
}

print

}' $1 | more

Hope this helps.
