[Bug 1069718] Re: Simple single word grep does not work for the attached file

2012-11-03 Thread Dave Gilbert
Hi xor, Yes I suspected it was UTF-16, I don't know much about tools that deal with UTF-16 stuff, certainly haven't come across grep like things that do. There are suggestions on sites to try using iconv to convert your data 1st. But, as I say, I wouldn't expect grep to deal with UTF-16.

Thank you. That's because the file is UTF-16. If grep should be able to handle UTF-16 then the issue is not invalid. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1069718 Title: Simple single word

Hi Xor, grep is actually correct in this case, if you look at the contents of the file byte-by-byte, it's actually got: 0001060 v nul 2 nul ) nul cr nul nl nul T nul r nul a nul 76 00 32 00 29 00 0d 00 0a 00 54 00 72 00 61 00 0001100 c nul k nul sp
