[unix] How can I extract a predetermined range of lines from a text file on Unix?

I was about to post the head/tail trick, but actually I'd probably just fire up emacs. ;-)

  1. esc-x goto-line ret 16224
  2. mark (ctrl-space)
  3. esc-x goto-line ret 16482
  4. esc-w

open the new output file, ctl-y save

Let's me see what's happening.
