It works fine for me, with my MSYS version of grep: $ grep --version GNU grep 2.5.4 $ cat <<EOF> a.txt this is a test EOF $ grep -n --color=always test a.txt 4:test <"test" appears here in red> What is apparent in the OP's post is that grep is emitting ANSI terminal control sequences to control colour. A standard Windows console doesn't know how to interpret those, so we see the raw control codes in the output. MSYS provides its own terminfo emulation layer, to translate those ANSI codes into the appropriate Windows console API function calls; perhaps your DJGPP variant does something similar? BTW, it is the existence of the terminfo emulation layer which allows the MSYS implementation of GNU "info" to run successfully, when -- last time I looked -- the GnuWin32 implementation just says "terminal is too dumb to run info". _____________________________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this topic or entire forum.
