Subject: Altered behaviour of grep
Date: Tue, 24 Mar 2015 08:07:36 +0000
Message-ID: <9D9AC45310887B40A7245734E850FBE1125C0E20@FS-MX02.frontier.local>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

grep -Pl "\xmn"
used to find files containing the ASCII character mn. For instance
grep -PL "\x0d" or "\x0a" or usefully "\x00".
This seems to have been lost with the current version.
Is this an error? If not, can anybody tell me what new syntax will recover the old behaviour?
Thank you.
Fergus
