I have a huge text file that contains paragraphs
separated by dotted borders. Each border is a line of stars such as: **************** What is an efficient way to selectively extract paragraphs and append them to a new text file? I will only select a paragraph if it does not contain profanity words or other select words. For example, given this input: ------BEGIN INPUT------- Hello. This is a short novel written by someone. ******************** I dont give a **** who reads this. ******************** Hey, sometimes **** happens, but you gotta keep going. ******************** The end! ******************** ------END INPUT------- The output should be: OUTPUT FILE: Hello. This is a short novel written by someone. The end! |
