"slice"

By Juergen Haas, About.com

Definition: slice: Extract out pre-defined slices of an ASCII file The slice program reads an input file and divide its prepared ASCII contents into possibly overlapping slices. These slices are determined by enclosing blocks which are defined by begin and end delimiters which have to be already in the file. The final output gets calculated by a slice term consisting of slice names, set theory operators and optional round brackets. For more information, please visit http://www.engelschall.com/sw/slice/
