unix: displaying lines n to m of a file

[walla]

In unix, what command can I use to display lines n to m of a file.

For instance, given the file test.txt, what command and syntax do I use to print lines 150 to 300 (and assume the last line is greater than 300).

Thanks.

I'm not sure if this is the simplest way, but you can use sed with something like...

cat test.txt | sed -n 150,300p

ugly hack?
cat test.txt |head -n 300 |tail -n 150
