I have 2 files. First file contains some lines of text, example:
banana
apple

Next file contains the same lines and some more, example:
banana
apple
pear
fig

How do I remove the lines in the first file from the lines of the second file using windows software ? I can't do it manually (there's thousands of lines). My ultraedit editor in combination with ultracompare might work, (if I could understand the syntax). It can be done in Linux, but I don't feel like installing a new OS just for this, see http://joemaller.com/2007/01/19/removing-one-files-contents-from-another-file/
