OK - if this is sent to me as man page maintainer - the grep page
is not mine.

If this is sent to me as man program maintainer - thanks! Removed
use of -q and -s.

(This was written during early Linux, and was really meant for Linux:
bith -q and -s occurred, depending on the distribution one chose.
I see that Paul Eggert already answered some more.)
