Hi

Need some help. On an embedded system being minimalistic 'grep -w'
does not work. Please let me know if somebody can emulate the behavior
by using some other tool.

How about grep -P '\b[pattern]\b'

I don't know if it will work as expected, but as far as I know, string enclosed between \b and \b is expected to match a word in perl regex.
