How can I remove a line with given string?
For instance you have the following text:
aaabbb
cccccc
aaaccc
cccaaa
So how can we remove all lines containing aaa text?
Please use Batch replace operation and enable "Use regular expressions".
In Search for field put:
Search for:
aaaa.*\r\n
Replace with field should be empty.
If you want to remove all lines only starting with aaa, you need to put ^ before the expression.
Search for:
^aaaa.*\r\n
Note, that \r\n is normal sequence for return and new line. For Unix or Linux files it could be just \r or \n
