select-string:tldr:b9f4d
This command is written in PowerShell and has several components:
-
Get-Content: This cmdlet is used to read the content of a file. It takes a file path as an argument and returns the contents of the file.
-
${path\to\file}: This is a placeholder for the actual file path. You need to replace it with the specific path to the file you want to read.
-
"|": The pipe symbol is used to send the output of one command as input to another command. In this case, it will pass the content of the file to the next command.
-
Select-String: This cmdlet is used to search for specific patterns within a given input. It takes the input from the previous command and searches for a pattern.
-
--NotMatch: This is a parameter of the Select-String cmdlet. It is used to specify that it should retrieve lines that do not match the search pattern.
-
"${search_pattern}": This is a placeholder for the search pattern. You need to replace it with the specific pattern you want to search for within the content of the file.
In summary, this command reads the content of a file at the specified file path, searches for lines that do not match a given pattern, and returns those lines.
