Thank you for all the great solutions! Because of my extremely limited *nix knowledge, I'd use the approach of "two grep's in a pipeline", such as the one "grep '^\*' < yourFile | grep -v '^\*INDICATOR' " suggested by Michael, as it's simple to understand and easy to memorize.
Thank you again. Zhao
