|Subject: Match a pattern
|
|
|I need to print the text between two words
|                              that are in different
|lines.
|

Assuming you want to get all lines between lines containing 'startword' and
the next line which contains 'endword'

my $word1 = qr{startword}i ;
my $word2 = qr{endword}i ;
while (<DATA>) {
print if (/\b${word1}\b/../\b${word2}\b/)
}

If the words are the same, replace the print if line with

print if (/\b${word1}\b/.../\b${word1}\b/)  ##3 dots is important

the regex depends on you. If you want, you can remove the i to compile a
case-sensitive regex.
