Learn how to use sed to quickly print specific lines from large files without opening them in an editor. The guide covers printing single lines with `sed -n 50p`, ranges with `sed -n 50,100p`, pattern-based ranges using regular expressions, and multiple line groups. This technique is particularly useful when debugging stack traces in large files like SQL dumps or when working in minimal environments without text editors.
