grep (GNU grep) 2.5.1
Maybe I am missing something, I am unable to get grep to recurse a directory
tree. See example...
================================
U:\Distrib\Win2K\Images>dir *.inf /b
hi.inf
ho.inf
U:\Distrib\Win2K\Images>dir FI600E\*.inf /b
SYSPREP.INF
U:\Distrib\Win2K\Images>head FI600E\SYSPREP.INF
;SetupMgrTag
[Unattended]
OemSkipEula=Yes
UnattendMode=FullUnattended
DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore
U:\Distrib\Win2K\Images>grep -ir Oem *.inf
U:\Distrib\Win2K\Images>del *.inf
U:\Distrib\Win2K\Images>grep -ir Oem *.inf
grep: *.inf: Invalid argument
================================
It only found *.inf in the current directory, and if I remove those it further
compalins that no filespec matching files exist.
Also this grep seems to not like to have stdout piped to it for it to grep upon.
U:\Distrib\Win2K\Images>grep --help | grep -i version
grep: fstat: Invalid argument
Annoying beast! I'd like to move to this one since it is open source and more
current and standard, but this is a bit crazy in my opinion... need the simple
stuff to work! ;-)
On Linux with the same build of grep, the piping works fine, but the recurse
is also a pain there.
