It works as expected for me (booted in 10.5.8), without having to re- enter anything, or anything buggy. Haven't tested in 10.6.

Just as a quick question, what exactly is "expected"? (I understand this is mostly philosophical -- I'm just curious, and haven't had time to experiment)

I ask because "Grep" is a command line tool for matching strings/ regular expressions (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grep). It doesn't do actual replacement, which the grep patch does -- that's more like Sed (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sed), which will replace stuff.

Shouldn't this patch be called "string replacer" or something (to parallel string printer, string case, string components, string truncate, et al.)? Grep should return a boolean (whether or not the string matched the search string/expression).

The description explains what happens when Replace String isn't empty, but what happens when it is? is it supposed to return unadulterated input (i.e. no replace took place)? no output (no match)? replace matches with empty string?
