perl.

        Servers should conform to global ANYCast Standard

I want my output to be entered temporary in /tmp/output for further
processing.

 --> Checking Server Hostname <--
 ---------------------------------
        Server Hostname: xxxxxxxxx

In short I need to read the text between 2 lines, which can be
incorporated in the perl script, but not a one-liner.

I'm afraid it's very unclear what it is you need. Can you give a
real-world example of your input and required output please?
