I’m trying to dig through some logs and need information before and after the line I can match on. How would I do this in PowerShell ala ‘grep -C 2’?
In version 1, I can’t wait for r2, then I get to put it on production machines 🙂

Getting closer here- because Select-String returns MatchInfo objects which I can pull a line number out of (39017), now I just need to pull the line surrounding… so:
If anyone could clean this up a bit to make it less slow, you may have the answer. Otherwise, this solution works but obviously not quickly.
