Wipe the spit off your chin and don't be so rude. This is a 
world-distribution discussion. You are flaming me for something which is
*YOUR* misconception.

Freak not, and listen my friend. Look at the above command. 
Do you see *ANYTHING* that looks like a "delete". NO! We're talking about 
counting lines between marks. T H A T    I S    A L L; Now go crawl back 
to wherever you came.

I, like any troll in any UNIX shop  around the universe can delete lines
ten different ways. There are many reasons why one needs to count lines 
between marks for other than deleting [ie; the ">>", "<<", "!}", etc.]. 
What I presented was the *ONLY* way I know of to "C O U N T    L I N E S 
without having to count. How many times do I have to repeat myself!

>For reality try...

For the benefit of *your* reality I'd suggest following the discussion 
more closely.

You know, I've about had enough of this.
