An open source and free command line grep like tool. It prints out the paragraphs which contains the pattern instead of lines.
Usage: pgrep [OPTION]... PATTERN [FILE] ... python pgrep [OPTION]... PATTERN [FILE] ...
Search for PATTERN in each FILE or standard input and output a paragraph separated by separator. Example: python pgrep.py -i 'hello world' menu.h main.c
OPTIONS: -c, --count Suppress normal output; instead print a count of matching lines for each input file. With the -v, --invert-match option, count non-matching lines. -e, --regexp=PATTERN Use pattern as the pattern; useful to protect patterns beginning with a -. -f, --file=FILE Obtain patterns from file, one per line. The empty file contains zero patterns, and therefore matches nothing. -h, --help Print this help -i, --ignore-case Ignore case distinctions in both the pattern and the input files. -l, --files-with-matches Suppress normal output; instead print the name of each input file from which output would normally have been printed. The scanning of every file will stop on the first match. -p, --separator=SEPARATOR Specify a separator. The default separator is '\n\s*\n'. -v, --invert-match Invert the sense of matching, to select non-matching parts. ```
