It looks like we won't be adding it back, so thie point is moot. However, I don't agree that there's a real problem with removing code that isn't being used. We have CVS; we can always bring it back later if we need it. > maybe we should give the option not to create 'e|fgrep' Yes, that's a good suggestion, for stripped-down systems. However, I doubt whether we'll ever make this the default (at least not for the forseeable future). Too many people are used to invoking egrep and fgrep.
