Command to output file content line by line
 
Hi,

Is there a command that will output a requested line number of a file?

I don't know of a specific command (there probably is one somewhere), but you can use:
Code:
head -n 100 filename | tail -n 1
to print out line 100.

Hi,

Try this:

sed -n 100p filename
