A quick google search reveals that NetBSD and FreeBSD use GNU grep, while |

OpenBSD uses BSD grep, which (at least according to the man page - see |

http://tinyurl.com/cs2unf) does not support GREP_OPTIONS. It seems that |

See http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi for a comprehensive list of manual |
| 12 |
pages for many popular unices. It seems that many greps do not support |
| 13 |
GREP_OPTIONS. |
