Ed is right... agrep is not part of RHEL, nor is it GPL compatible (though
I'd maintain it is Free enough.. The license is one of those academic
things.
The best description of agrep is the manpage:
http://www.lib.uchicago.edu/keith/agrep.html
It's very cool stuff. There's a very old rpm at ftp.redhat.com in the
contrib/libc6 tree.. the src.rpm rebuilds nicely on RHEL and that's what
I've been using. Link to source availible here:
