Does 'grep -r -e hello .' or 'grep -r hello .' work? Larry Original Message: ----------------- From: Mark Blackburn marklist AT fangorn DOT ca Date: Thu, 19 Dec 2002 16:21:28 -0500 To: cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Subject: Grep says file exists and then doesn't "grep" it If I type: $ grep -e hello -r . I get: grep: .: File exists and grep doesn't search the contents of any files If I try compiling it myself from the setup source package (grep-2.5-1) this doesn't happen anymore. Grep behaves as expected. Has anybody else seen this behaviour? uname -a CYGWIN_98-4.10 MARK 1.3.17(0.67/3/2) 2002-11-27 18:54 i686 unknown cygcheck -s: Windows 98 Ver 4.10 Build 1998 [...] d:\usr /opt system binmode d:\home /home system binmode d: /d system binmode d:\work /home/work system binmode d:\home\windows\desktop /desktop system binmode d:\cygwin\usr\X11R6\lib\X11\fonts /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts system binmode d:\cygwin / system binmode d:\cygwin\bin /usr/bin system binmode d:\cygwin\lib /usr/lib system binmode . /mnt user binmode,cygdrive [yadda, yadda...] -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ -------------------------------------------------------------------- mail2web - Check your email from the web at http://mail2web.com/ . -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
