Record grep

Hi everybody! Does anyone know of an existing command-line utility that will look through a simple database file (with records separated by some ascii character, or series of characters) for a pattern, then print the entire record to the screen when a record containing a match is found? I've written a little utility in C which does this, and I've been thinking about adding some additional features before offering it to the community. I won't bother if I'm reinventing the wheel however, so if anyone knows if such a thing exists already, please let me know. -- JAY VOLLMER JVOLLMER@VISI.COM TEXT REFS DOUBLEPLUSUNGOOD SELFTHINK VERGING CRIMETHINK IGNORE FULLWISE
