I have a config file that uses ; as a comment character. Unfortunately there are soooooooo many comments I can't read the options that have been enabled. Can I use grep or another tool to pull all the lines in this file that do not start with the ; and place them into another file so I can actually read what this file is doing? Thanks for any help. Sincerely, Joshua Lewis joshua.lewis@familyfunzone.net
