Best way to filter statements from a .log?

Question

I do not have a clue but what would be the best way to make a filter on a server.log file so it pulls any lines starting with severe into a separate notepad document to debug easier.

If it helps its a console log for a java based game and I am just experimenting.

In your code, where you are printing out the logs, simply substring/contains the exception to check if it is 'severe', if so append that to a file from there. No need to go to your console and filter to the file manually.

if(<yourException.toString()>.contains("severe")){
    <code to append exception to file>
}
