Windows 8

You can install findstr or grep on your computer and then you can use them from the commandline. The link below says this stuff will run on Windows 7.I don't understand how anyone could write programs on a machine that does not have grep on it. Apparently people do exactly that.How to create a command-line toolkit for Windows

I see that you are using windows 8 and not windows 7. I revisited the link and it says that the unixtools stuff will work on windows8 but I cannot verify that when I look for grep.Yikes. That's an astoundingly bad change to windows. I did some searching and I don't see any indication that this stuff does work on windows 8. In fact I see a bunch of paid for stuff that I would never use.There is a fee gui program called grepWin that works on windows 8. Maybe that will fit the bill?Edited by NoNukes, : No reason given.Edited by NoNukes, : No reason given.
