hlgrep README - 2 Jun 93
DESCRIPTION
===========
hlgrep is a perl script that works like grep(1), but highlights the
patterns it finds. Unlike hgrep(1), hlgrep can highlight patterns with
metacharacters.
Highlighting is done using your terminal's standout capability, but you
can edit hlgrep to use any capability you want. The current version is
hardcoded for the vt100, but you can edit it to use tput(1) to get the
capabilities for any terminal at runtime.
INSTALLATION
============
1. Edit Makefile if you want to change the default installation
directories (/usr/local/bin and /usr/local/man/man1).
2. Edit hlgrep if you want to add tput capability or use terminal
capabilities other than vt100 standout. Comments will tell you
how.
3. Run "make install".
