Is there a program like grep that not only tells me the line but the
character position of a match?
I was hoping the byte-offset would give me what I wanted. In the
following example, I would have expected an output of 4 (or 3):
echo "foobar" | grep -b b
0:foobar
Is there a way to make grep report the offset as 4? Is there some
other program?
This is under Mac OS X, RHL9, FC1, FC3, Knoppix 3.8+
