What should he use?  Of the standard commands, egrep is often the
fastest.  I timed fgrep, grep, and egrep searching uts/os/*, and
egrep was the fastest.

>- is wondering how to move a directory

Some of us Wizards can be confused by that, too.  Especially if we
find ourselves on a system without fsdb :-)

>- thinks that 'dbx' is a brand of stereo component
He will be really confused when I get around to writting my
debugger ( Dynamic On-Line Bug Yanker for C ) !

>GURU
>- uses 'm4' and 'lex' with comfort

>- reads device driver source with his breakfast
