Thanks. Let me be more specific. My log file "log.txt" is pretty big. About 30 MB. My command line is
If my "exclude" file is a text file with
It works fine. Almost instantaneously, the file "out" is created, in which lines with these numbers have been properly removed.
But if my exclude file is
A blank "out" file is quickly created, but the command line doesn't report that it the command has finished. It just hangs. I am careful, by the way, not to have blank lines in my "exclude" file. top tells me that the grep process is still working hard (100% of CPU!), but the "out" file remains blank. That's what I call "never-never land".
Again, the general rule seems to be that a list of *numbers* in my exclude file works fine, as does one or two alphabetic strings. Three alphabetic strings does not work. Not what's nuts about this is that a number *is* an alphameric string (though not an alphabetic string).
