Re: matrix text editing

[Andrew D Jewell]

How about two line script :

csplit foo /delimiter/ '{*}'
paste -s xx* | perl -pe 's/^delimiter\t//'

Having to tack on the perl part seems inelegant.
Looks to me like csplit really needs an option to omit the delimiters 
from the output. Look for it at alexautils.sourceforge.net real soon 
now.
