It's a port of GNU grep 2.0 (1992). It does not support recursion by itself yet (-r). Therefore one would need a real mode port of GNU or BSD find, which unfortunately does not seem to be available for FreeDOS.
Not sure at what point that became part of GNU's version. I actually wrote my own grep, which does have -r, but it requires the POSIX "ftw.h", and I'm not aware of any 16-bit compilers that have that. Rest, Watcom's prolly enough for.
NetBSD grep probably has a bunch of other BSD libc dependencies that would also have to be brought over.
