Summary : Approximate grep utility
URL : http://laurikari.net/tre/
License : BSD
Description : The agrep tool is similar to the commonly used grep utility, but agrep
: can be used to search for approximate matches.
:
: The agrep tool searches text input for lines (or records separated by
: strings matching arbitrary regexps) that contain an approximate, or
: fuzzy, match to a specified regexp, and prints the matching lines.
: Limits can be set on how many errors of each kind are allowed, or
: only the best matching lines can be output.
:
: Unlike other agrep implementations, TRE agrep allows full POSIX
: regexps of any length, any number of errors, and non-uniform costs.
