This is the GNU projects grep program. It replaces grep, fgrep, egrep, and
bmgrep. The only changes I made were those required to get it to compile
and run correctly on the Amiga. I also forced the code to go through a
common clean up and exit function as I am still unconvinced Lattice C 5.02
cleans up properly in all situations.
Even though it is twice the size of the grep that comes with Lattice C,
it is far faster, and offers many more features.
The egrep binary was created with the following command line:
lc -L -DUSG -DEGREP egrep.c alloca.c dfa.c getopt.c regex.c
This means it uses the characters under the EGREP column in the man page.
Egrep needs about 15K of stack space.
