In Reply to this Note From: <Peter J. Holsberg> > >I have fgrep.exe and the source but I don't see where the options are >discussed. And SVR4 fgrep doesn't have many of the gnu fgrep options. ??? > >Thanks, >Pete I suggest that if you are using only one grep, that it be 'egrep', not 'fgrep'. Egrep can do everything that the other grep's can do, is relatively fast, and has all the advanced options missing from the other grep's. You are correct, that the GNUish version may be missing some documentation. I suggest that you look at the distribution on prep.gnu.ai.mit.edu for the documentation. It was not distributed with the GNUish versions to save space, and also because it is typically not modified by the GNUish project. -David- # david@wubios.wustl.edu ^ David J.
