Hi,
I noticed that grep behaves differently in vim and gvim (both ran in
Linux).
While using grep from vim I'm able to move between the results with
:cn/cp used from gvim the command gets replaced by something like:
!grep -n 'my_string_and_options_here' /dev/null ... | tee /tmp/...
The 'grepprg' has the same definition in both vim and gvim.
I searched in help but I can't understand why it is behaving like
this. I think it's cfg.
Are there any cfg files that gvim reads but vim doesn't?
Thanks,

Starting with version 7, Vim has an "internal grep" command which IMHO
is a Great (TM) feature: see ":help :vimgrep". It ought to work
identically across all versions and platforms.
To see which scripts were sourced by the Vim you're currently using, use
the ":scriptnames" command (q.v.). The prime culprit for things that
gvim and vim do differently is the gvimrc (~/.gvimrc or ~/_gvimrc, if
the one isn't found gvim looks for the other), but any script may use
the ':if has("gui_running")' construct to discriminate between vim and gvim.
You may try ":map! cn" ":map! cN" or ":map! cp" to see if these have
been remapped.
See
:help :vimgrep
:help :scriptnames
:help has()
:help feature-list " then search down, /^gui_running
:help :map
:help map-overview
