Re:Moreutils – Unix tools that nobody thought to write (2012) by burntsushi on Sunday August 23, 2020 @08:39AM (#24251478)
Interesting. Hmm. Not quite sure how to combat that one. The issue is that even though ripgrep is not POSIX compatible, it can pretty easily replace grep in most or all circumstances. The similarities between the tools are, for example, much greater than their differences. I know for me at least, I don't ever run grep interactively. The only time I ever use it is in shell scripts.
