Re: [PATCH/RFC 0/4] grep: support to match by line number

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I am personally not thrilled by what this series attempts to do, but first
a few questions:

 - Are there existing non-git "grep" implementations that do this?

 - If yes:
   - what command option letter do they use to specify line number?
   - do they not support a range notation (e.g. -@ 25-30,32-40)?
   - what do they do when given more than one file?

 - If no:
   - why not?  Is it a sign that this is ill-thought out misfeature?
   - perhaps people use something like "sed -n -e 25,30p file" and be
     happy?
