grep, egrep, fgrep - print lines matching a pattern
SYNOPSIS
grep [options] PATTERN [FILE...]
grep [options] [-e PATTERN | -f FILE] [FILE...]
e.g
grep "24:02:2010" date.txt
o/p is :hi today is 24:02:2010
here we should keep the matching patten in double
qoute"xxxxxxxx" and date.txt is inputfile in which u have
to search the pattern. for more details see manual page of
grep.type man grep and see various option
