Script question

Hello List,

I'm trying to figure out how to use perl or a shell to grab a specific 
line from a text file. The only information I'll have to identify the 
line is the line number. I know I could open the file and just read down 
to the line but I was hoping for a shortcut. Any ideas?

Thanks,
