Hi guys; I replaced GNU grep with SCO's grep from http://unixtools.sourceforge.net . They are both covered by the same license (GPL) so there might not be any real advantage in the replacement. I haven't compared performance either. Compiling was trivial, I only had to cut and paste one function from stubs.c in their libregexp stuff and it seems to work fine. I just wanted to mention this in case there someone interested in an alternative. cheers, Pedro. ______________________________________________________________________ Yahoo!
