Hi Kim,

If you could provide some sample text, grep patterns and expected results, 
it would be easier to answer your question.

Meanwhile this pattern may help:

Find: 
(?s)(?P<HEAD>first_pattern|second_pattern).*?(?P<TAIL>first_pattern|second_pattern)
Replace: \P<HEAD>, \P<TAIL>


Sample.txt
--
first_pattern bla bla bla second_pattern

second_pattern foo
bar first_pattern

first_pattern foo bar fizz first_pattern
--

Extracted result:
--
first_pattern, second_pattern
second_pattern, first_pattern
first_pattern, first_pattern
--
