I'm trying to get specific lines from File1, and others from File2 and print them in File3 (in consecutive order).

Let's say I need lines 1 and 3 from File1 and Lines 6 and 8 from File 2, then print them in File3.

I came up with this form:

grep -H 'x*' File1.txt File2.txt | sed '/File1.txt:[13]/d;/File2.txt:[68]/d;s/[^:]*://' > File3.txt

This deletes the 'unwanted' lines and print them in a third file, which works well for few lines, but with more lines it mixes them up in a weird way in the output file. In this example line 1 and 3 is: [13]), but I'll have hundreds or more lines, so I don't know how to separate different lines in the brackets (I know a 'comma' in between doesn't work).

I included File1 and File2 (to give an idea of my files). For instance, I'd need lines 19 to 40 from File1, and lines 9 to 18 from File2 printed in File3 (same order). Is there any other way of doing this that you can suggest?

I'd appreciate it.
