Using sed...how do I

Using sed...how do I delete lines beginning with a bracket?

I have tried

>sed -e '^[/d' test.txt


How would I delete a line that begins with a bracket and ends with a bracket?

I know I am missing something with regards to the bracket acting like a special character. Any help would be appreciated.

To delete a line which starts with a bracket

sed '/^\[/d' input-file

To delete a line which starts and ends with a bracket

sed '/^\[.*\]$/d' input-file
