By default, for
Grep
searches the tool runs
grep
on Unix/Linux/FreeBSD/Mac OS X and a specific supplied
grep.exe
on Microsoft Windows. The actual searching utility used can be configured with the variable
lw:*grep-command*
.
The arguments passed to the searching utility are constructed using the values of
lw:*grep-fixed-args*
and
lw:*grep-command-format*
. It is not be necessary to alter the default values unless you use a non-default value of
lw:*grep-command*
or have a non-standard
grep
installed.
See the LispWorks User Guide and Reference Manual for details of these Search Files tool configuration variables.
