A grep for Text Files. This was originally created for use on
MS-DOS ages ago. Since then it went through many rewrites to
remove/add functionality to search large dumps from various
databases. Now I believe it has everything I need to search
these database dumps.
In most cases you should use grep(1) But it has a few odd search
options that grep(1) may not yet have yet. For example, this is
useful when searching delimited files when you want to search a
specific column.
This works fine under Linux, BSD(s) and AIX.
Compile Instructions are in the README.md File inside the
tarball.
