You could simply say ``awk '$1 !~ "#" {print $1}' /etc/hosts'',
couldn't you? Am I missing something ?
Incidentally, what action would ``grep -v [...]'' perform on such a
line as the following ?
<one-liner>
...blah blah... # brief comment on blah blah
</one-liner>
Is this what you expect from ``grep -v "#" <some_file>''?
Best regards,
