hi, I have 1.6 GB big text file and I have to find if there is a specific word in the file. Every time I try $> grep -i "word" file.txt I'll get message: "grep: memory exhausted".
I would report that as a bug - unless you really have too little memory
Try fgrep. It doesn't use regular expression matching (and your "word" is a simple fixed string, so it will work for that).
"grep: memory exhausted" again :(
Try cat file.txt | grep -i "word" - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
