Sorry. I take it back. GREP is not an IBM utility.

GREP was originally part of the UNIX system. The version we got came with
WATERLOO C compiler as a utility. I don't think it's in the public domain.

There is an article by R.S. Boyer and J.S. Moore "A Fast String Algorithm"
taken from Communications of the ACM, pages 262-272, Volume 20 Number 10,
1977 which may have been used to create the utility.
