>Description:

grep -a -R mt * flashed my terminal, even though it shouldn't have searched
binary files. I had a look at the source to grep to see how it determined which 
files were binary and it seemed fine so I dont offer a solution...just a 
complaint :-) Hopefully someone out there will no how to fix it. I guess I'll
just have to avoid binary files prefaced by 32 prinatble characters :-)
