Search for Pattern, Print the line and print the next 10 or x lines below it 1

[madasafish]

I have seen this snippet of code somewhere and have trawled back 10 pages looking for it.
Apologies if this is a repeat question on the forum.

Please note there will be multiple occurrences of "Pattern".

Thanks in advance

Hi

awk '[fuchsia]/pattern/[/fuchsia][teal]{[/teal]c[teal]=[/teal][purple]11[/purple][teal]}[/teal]c[teal]&&[/teal]c[teal]--[/teal]' /input/file

Note that the c value includes the matching line itself.

Tested with [tt]gawk[/tt] and [tt]mawk[/tt].

But personally I would check first whether the available [tt]grep[/tt] implementation supports [tt]-A[/tt] ( [tt]--after-context[/tt] ) option :

grep -A 10 'pattern' /input/file
