6GNU grep, Utilities, fast file search and replace toolDThis is GNU grep 2.0, the "fastest grep in the west" (we hope). AllFbugs reported in previous releases have been fixed. Many exciting new:bugs have probably been introduced in this major revision.?GNU grep is provided "as is" with no warranty. The exact termsDunder which you may use and (re)distribute this program are detailed7in the GNU General Public License, in the file COPYING.CGNU grep is based on a fast lazy-state deterministic matcher (aboutGtwice as fast as stock Unix egrep) hybridized with a Boyer-Moore-GosperDsearch for a fixed string that eliminates impossible text from beingCconsidered by the full regexp matcher without necessarily having toClook at every character. The result is typically many times fasterIthan Unix grep or egrep. (Regular expressions containing backreferencingwill run more slowly, however.)BSee the file AUTHORS for a list of authors and other contributors.CSee the file INSTALL for compilation and installation instructions.?See the file MANIFEST for a list of files in this distribution.ESee the file NEWS for a description of major changes in this release.=See the file PROJECTS if you want to be mentioned in AUTHORS.>Send bug reports to bug-gnu-utils@prep.ai.mit.edu.
