You can just do
grep Error5 log.txt
In the back of my mind I know this is there, but the
cat | grep
pattern is just muscle memory at this pointI’ve been ‘told off’ so many times by the internet for my cat and grep combos that I still do it, then I remove the cat, it still works, and I feel better. shrug
for me as well.
Just remember that if you aren’t actually concatenating files,
cat
is always unnecessary.
