Now, is this a bug in grep, that should not look inside a named pipe, or is it my fault?

You told it to look in there. Whenever I grep for something or other, I virtually always use the "find <specification> | xargs grep" combination. The xargs can also be parallelized, a big advantage if you've got multiple cores and many files. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (5.8°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free DNS hosting, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
