I have to read log file between and my question is how to get only the text in the file wich is between two dates using unix commands?
Every line contain date and I want to get the text in the file which dates are equal or bigger that the FROM date and lower or equal than the TO date.
The format of the date is 13/05/23 01:58.
The second date is for an example 13/05/13 07:50.
Example
13:41:55,110 INFO HellowordlsThis text is generated by me
