Re: Deleting lines steered by another file

Hi Meino

You can accomplish this using grep on the command-line. If you want to
search A.html for the strings given as lines in B.txt, use the
command:

grep -Ff B.txt A.html

If you want to see lines of A.html that don't contain any of the
strings given as lines in B.txt, use the command:

grep -Fvf B.txt A.html

Best,
Mathias Rav
