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.)
Cool! Cool! Cool!!! I use grep now only with –color!
Yeah, I wish I found this one earlier. ;)
michael, you didn’t know?
