The flags that are supported are a subset of those supported by the standard Unix grep and of course an even smaller subset of those supported by GNU grep:
| -c | Display only a count of matching lines. |
| -i | Ignore case when making comparisons (same as -y). |
| -l | (letter el) List just the names of files (once) with matching lines. Each file name is separated by a new-line character. |
| -n | Preceed each line with the file name and line number, in the following default form: filename(line) |
| -# | (where # is a digit from 0 through 9, inclusive): If the -n flag is also specified, then a specifying a digit will select a pattern to use when showing the file name, line number, and starting column. If no digit is specified, then 0 (zero) is assumed. |
| -s | Descend subdirectories, also. |
| -v | Display lines that don't contain the pattern. |
| -y | Ignore case when making comparisons (compatible
with the RS/6000).
