Thank you for taking the time to read this and I will appreciate every single response no mater the quality of content. 
Using php, I'm trying to create a script which will delete several lines within a text file (.txt) if required, based upon whether the line starts with a 0 or a negative number. Each line within the file will always start with a number, and I need to erase all the neutral and/or negative numbers.The main part I'm struggling with is that the content within the text file isn't static (e.g. contain x number of lines/words etc.) Infact, it is automatically updated every 5 minutes with several lines. Therefore, I'd like all the lines containing a neutral or negative number to be removed.The text file follows the structure:\[code\]-29 aullah10 name4 username4 user6 player\[/code\]If possible, I'd like Line 1 and 2 removed, since it begins with a neutral/negative number. At points, there maybe times when there are more than two neutral/negative numbers.All assistance is appreciated and I look forward to your replies; thank you. If I didn't explain anything clearly and/or you'd like me to explain in more detail, please reply. Thank you.
