I hope I've got the right newsgroup(s) for this question: a friend of mine who has a PC wants programs to do generalized sorting and searching, so I figured grep and sort would fit the bill. I doubt that he wants to change from MSDOS to Unix just to get this capability, so can anyone refer me to a source of these programs running under MSDOS? Please e-mail replies; I'm not a PC person myself. This is news. This is your | Peter Scott, NASA/JPL/Caltech brain on news. Any questions? | (pjs@aristotle.jpl.nasa.gov)
