Might I suggest:-
Code:
grep -v "Hello"

This should do what you need, according to how you describe it above.

More help might be available....
  • if you have errors and you post them.
  • if you have an input that gives unexpected output, and you post them.


Please remember to post all code, files, input & output/errors in CODE tags. It makes them easier to read and preserves multiple spaces for indentation or fixed-width data.

Do you want to know the equivalent option of "grep -v <String> <Filename>" in AIX?

-v flag in grep command is common and standard on all UNIX operating systems. So it will work on AIX.

Now I'm not sure I understand the question.

Does "equivalent" mean something grep-like, but not grep? I don't know any grep that would not have the -v option (save for old Solaris, perhaps, or toy Linux's that you might install on Raspberry PI, etc.)
