Is there a grep-like utility that will return a variable number of context lines? I need to search through source code for occurrences of a particular function and get back the function plus its arguments, even if they're split across multiple lines. E.g. if I search for "proto_tree_add_text" I want back
proto_tree_add_text(subtree, tvb, curr_offset, 1, "%s : Reserved", bigbuf);
and
proto_tree_add_text(tree, tvb, offset, payload_len, "Payload");
equally. I _don't_ want the extra one-size-fits-all fluff returned by GNU grep's "-A" flag.
