You could use sed, or use a new version of busybox (which acts as grep). grep -v can be done with sed this way: sed '/pat/d' grep -q could be done this way: $(cat input | sed '/pat/' | wc -l) -ne 0 sed is full GNU sed, whereas grep is busybox's minimalist grep. _______________________________________________ Leaf-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user
