You and everyone else.  I've got one in C which is very similar to egrep, but
with one additional display-context option.  You can select how many lines above
and below you want, and it uses egrep alone when it can.  You're welcome to it.
Send mail.  To people who got earlier versions, I've fixed a couple bugs since
then.  If you want a new one, yell.
