Hi,
I have encountered the following bug with agrep 2.04 on FreeBSD 5.1.
The bug does not appear on FreeBSD 4.2.
I have address files whose format is address - blank line - address -
blank line - etc, like so (Name 1 begins in column 1 in the file):
Name1
Address1
City1, State1 Zip1
Name2
Address2
City2, State2 Zip2
...
The following command
agrep -h -i -t -d '$$' Name address_file
produces the following output (The first line is missing the first two
characters):
me1
Address1
City1, State1 Zip1
Name2
Address2
City2, State2 Zip2
...
As I said, this bug does not appear on FreeBSD 4.2.
Thanks for all the great work you guys do!
Cheers,
Carl

agrep -V

This is agrep version 3.0, 1994.
On 5.1 it gives
agrep: illegal option -V
