--- Begin Message ---Package: grep Version: 2.5.1.ds2-4 Severity: normal The result of this command is undocumented: echo foo |grep -e foo -e bar -e baz In fact the manpage and help output both suggest that this will be rejected, because -e is only allowed once: grep [options] [-e PATTERN | -f FILE] [FILE...] (actually, the help output doesn't say that, which is an inconsistency) The behaviour seems to be that any of the matches is allowed, similar to grep -E 'foo|bar|baz'.. On that note, does grep allow matching multiple things, in any order? As in, the 1-process equivalent of |grep foo|grep bar|grep baz, or grep -E '(foo.*bar)|(bar.*foo)'.
