I am trying to collect lines from a file with specific word: for example the word host, I need to direct all names of hosts.

host= mx,rt,fd,rt,wed,asd, \ fm, jklf,dfd,dfd  host = jd,er,ew,yu,tg,ed,ik,cs,\ fd, gr, jy  host = mz,fg,jh 

I am using : grep -i host filename | awk '{print $2}' only works for the first line , it does not any name after \

so the output is;

 mx,rt,fd,rt,wed,asd, \ jd,er,ew,yu,tg,ed,ik,cs,\ mz,fg,jh 

as you see I am not getting rest of the line after \

I don't want to get rid of \ I would like to keep it, I can move it and connect all names so it will be seen as oneline , but I don't want to do that.

Any idea , it is appreciated, it could be easy , but I can make it work, even when I use tr.

only works for the first line , it does not output any name after \

as you see I am not getting rest of the line after \

I don't want to get rid of \ I would like to keep it, I can move it and connect all names, so it will be seen as one_line , but I don't want to do that.
