Regex: Anchor to Line Start (^)

EasyRegular Expressions3-5 min
The brief

Extract lines that START with 'Error' — not merely contain it — from /root/work/log.txt into /root/work/out.txt.

A line like 'saw an Error later' contains Error but doesn't begin with it, so it must not appear in your output.

What you'll do
  • out.txt holds exactly the lines beginning with 'Error'
