Hi there, I just signed up on this forum and I see there are a lot of great guys that can help noobs(like me).
I'm searching for a filter that text pipe pro may have it but cannot find it. It's a bout removing some lines when comparing two files.
So, I have two large text document files. I want to compare file 2 to file 1 and remove lines that contain some words. I mean some words that appear in some of the lines of file 1(base file). When those words are matching I want the entire line to be deleted.
Example:
Lines in file 1(base file)
dog
car
house
Lines in document 2:
I have a big house.
My car is nice.
I'm living in a small house.
I am a student.
I'm not a smart person.
We are all friends.
After comparing file 2 to file 1 I want the results to remain this:
I am a student.
I'm not a smart person.
We are all friends.
Anyone know how I can do this ?
Thanks

Re: Remove matching lines
Never mind.
I managed to read the sticky from this forum and I've found out how to filter the words.
Chose EasyPattern and apply this filter:
['dog' or 'car' or 'house']
