Would you consider feeling only a little bad for a $15 Shareware package?

The grep contained in the PiCnix package (~28 utilities) does exactly what
you stated, and very quickly, too.  It is available from:

PiCnix Package
P. O. Box 658
Hadley, MA  01035

An extra $30 will even get you all of the source code.

My only relationship with them is that of a satisfied customer.
