Well, it's a good port, but I don't use it, for whatever reason. Like
I said, I use Xgrep  because it's very small and plenty good enough
for my needs. It does lack a few things that GNU grep has (including
src, not sure why R.Nordier never released that, wish I could ask him
why).

Anyways, here's a link to several smaller DOS greps (e.g. Dgrep, which
has C src and supports context: "-3"), if size is a barrier to you.
Otherwise, you may as well use the DJGPP port of 2.51 mentioned above
(but do use UPX 2.92 beta "--ultra-brute" on it:  560k is a lot better
than 1028k for a silly .EXE).

P.S. There's another interesting variant called Agrep, but it is quite
unusual.   :-)
