This one took a little bit of trial and error, but I finally got the flag to print out to the console with a simple operation. See photo:  I simply read the content of `flag.txt` by using command substitution to bypass the restrictions put on the challenge. I basically used `eval location_of_flag` but instantly redirected the output to console. `<` was not one of the restricted characters. 😁 >[!check]- Flag! >FLAG-a78i8TFD60z3825292rJ9JK12gIyVI5P
