Jun 18, 2015 at 9:54 comment added Stéphane Chazelas That FAQ is about generally operating on a range exluding the boundaries, in that example they prepend >> to each line, but of course, you can use -n and print them instead or whatever operation you want to perform on the range.

Jun 18, 2015 at 9:29 comment added syntaxerror @StéphaneChazelas Thanks for that FAQ site, but -- that addresses a different problem, at least telling from the output (Contents of input.fil - Output of sed script). It will also print the lines preceding first pattern and following second pattern. Hence, that's not entirely the same...

Jun 18, 2015 at 8:47 comment added syntaxerror @G-Man "Resulting output" refers to the output between the two pattern matches A and B (both of which I want to exclude). And from plain logic, what you get out will always have pattern A as first line and pattern B as the last, so a simple sed statement that does a d on first and last line will do.
Jun 18, 2015 at 5:44 comment added G-Man Says 'Reinstate Monica' Seriously.  Define "between".  Define "print, then delete".  What do you mean, "... the resulting output will always contain the two patterns on first and last line ..."?  Do you want start_data and end_data in your output or don't you?
