I have two separate scripts I was just trying combine them into a
single script basically to learn more about AWK.

To extract names I have this

awk '{RS=""};{FS="\n"};{for(i=1;i<NF;i++){if($i ~ /Author-Name:/)
print  $i}}' wpaper.rdf | sed 's/Author-Name: //g' | sort -u >
sorted-names.txt

Finds Author-Name: in each record, Strips the Author-Name: and
trailing space, sorts into alphabetical order and strips duplicates
and dumps it all in a text file.

To find the titles I have this

awk '{RS=""};{FS="\n"};{for(i=1;i<NF;i++){if($i ~
name)}}{for(i=1;i<NF;i++){if($i ~ name){for(i=1;i<NF;i++){if($i ~
/Title:/){print $i }}}}}' name=Harry.R.Clarke wpaper.rdf | sed
's/Title: //g' > Harry.R.Clarke.txt

Finds Harry.R.Clarke in each record extracts the Title line from the
record strips title and outputs it to a file.

I wonder if I can use the sorted-names.txt as input to the second
script to extract every title for every author.
That will give me something to puzzle about for the weekend.
