How do i use grep to exclude a list of strings from a file



  • Create an exclude list of strings in a file.

    stringA
    stringB
    stringC
    ...
    ...
    
    $ grep -v -f my_exclude_file my_list_file
    

    This will exclude stringA, stringB, and stringC from file called my_list_file.
