use grep
capesong,
You can also use grep.
cat file1 |grep -v string > file2
The "-v" option for grep will omit any lines that contain the string.
Also, you can use this to delete blank lines from a file as follows.
cat file1 |grep -v ^$ > file2
In my opinion, "grep" is a very powerful tool along with the "find" command. They are 2 very good tools in UNIX.
