Solaris 7 fgrep
fgrep -n foo --- blah
fgrep: can't open ---
fgrep: can't open blah
Linux 7.3 fgrep
fgrep foo blah --- blah # that's three - signs
grep: unrecognized option `---'
Usage: grep [OPTION]... PATTERN [FILE]...
Try `grep --help' for more information.
Why the reference to grep not fgrep in the error message? Cannot pass
multiple files on same command line.
fgrep -n 'foo' blah foo
grep: blah: No such file or directory
