Beats me. As I see it no one cares over this software now, it would seem
some folks have used it in proprietary crap and those versions are much
better. To me what we can best do is see what we can take out of agrep,
and port it to proper GNU grep, then see if git can also enable complex
queries as Julia notes.

Patches to those projects welcomed I'm sure.
