Does anyone know of a way to use grep to pull out only the lines containing these important messages from the files contained in PORT_LOGDIR? Each lines appears to begin with an asteriks, however something like this does not work for me: # grep -E '^\*' /var/log/portage/* I must admit that my regex skills are limited.
