We need a single ksh binary with grep builtin. If we deploy multiple files with .paths then we have to convince at least 11 groups at our site that this makes sense, doesn't affect them and is worth to put this on the agenda of lots of meetings. Not to mention the yapping about using perl instead. > so it depends how bitter grep problems are vs trying .paths You're kidding, are you?
