Developers,
I'm not sure if you support grep in a win32 environment, but I'm using grep
using the -m option. It's parsing output and should stop after one instance
is found (-m 1). In a linux environment, it works properly, but in windows
it does not. I've used the cygwin grep.exe as well as the win32 compile
found at: http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/. The grep version on both systems
is 2.5.1. The problem is, the data takes a while to output, but every
instance is the same, so if I get one hit, it can stop. In windows, it
doesn't stop until the output has stopped.
Please let me know what other details I can provide to help.
Thanks!!!
