There is grep-the-command-line-tool, which you would call using e.g.
$output = `grep whatever`;
and which is not included with a Win32 OS,
and there is grep-the-Perl-function, which you could use as e.g.
> @allfiles = grep {$_ ne '.' and $_ ne '..' } readdir THISDIR;
and which is available on any platform that supports Perl.
