The other day I had problems with grep, so I rewrote it in JavaScript ... I could have used awk, but at least my script is more then double as fast as awk. I think it's some sort of procrastination and being self managed. Reminds me that I should get off HN and start working.
- croon 10y ago> I could have used awk, but at least my script is more then double as fast as awk. I find this very hard to believe. Are you sure your awk implementation was okay?

- z3t4 10y agoI was investigating an e-mail problem, searching log files across several e-mail servers ... Did it go through this server, or that server ? After a lot of frustration I found out grep didn't show all matches ... I does report the right amount with the -c argument though.
