Yet another of those tiny things that I wish I discovered a billion years ago - GNU grep supports color. Yup, that’s right. You can actually have your matches nicely highlighted in the results. All you have to do to use this beauty is run grep --color instead of just grep. (Hint: an alias might be in order.)
GNU grep can be colorful
