- GNU grep package, Amiga source + diffs.
- .description
- GNU grep is based on a fast lazy-state deterministic matcher (about
- twice as fast as stock Unix egrep) hybridized with a Boyer-Moore-
- Gosper search for a fixed string that eliminates impossible text from
- being considered by the full regexp matcher without necessarily having
- to look at every character. The result is typically many times faster
- than Unix grep or egrep. (Regular expressions containing
- backreferencing will run more slowly, however.)
-
- This archive contains the Amiga source and the diffs that were applied
- to the baseline FSF source distribution to generate the Amiga source.
