using grep to output non-matches into output file
Hi,
I'm running a mass grep script to search for patterns. I have it working but now what I want to do is display the patterns that do not match into another output file and no longer the matches. What option do I use with grep or pipe? I want the command to display the pattern it didn't find into a text file. I'm on Redhat 5.4 GNU. The file will contain 28 thousand grep queries and this time I don't want the matches, just the patterns that do not match. Just for information purposes: Target file to search against is called objects_from_file_map.txt and I would name the output file to something like non-matching_objects.csv Example of one the start of my file where I'm doing it the normal way but like I said, I need the opposite now: #!/usr/bin/sh #this script takes searches for the missing objects in filemap and #displays output in duplicated_matching_objects.csv grep -n 118021.asm objects_from_file_map.txt>duplicated_matching_objects.csv grep -n 118022.asm objects_from_file_map.txt>>duplicated_matching_objects.csv grep -n 118023.asm objects_from_file_map.txt>>duplicated_matching_objects.csv grep -n 118025.asm objects_from_file_map.txt>>duplicated_matching_objects.csv ..and so on |
And the manpage was no help ?. Particularly the bit about invert-match ?.

I dont think grep will do what you want on it's own.

The entire concept is appalling inefficient. Usage of (even simple) regex would save the recurrent re-reading of the entire file - e.g. say
Code:
grep -nv 11802[0-3,5].asm objects_from_file_map.txt>>duplicated_matching_objects.csv |
