I've written a script (bgrep) for a more advanced grep command (& attached a cut down version below). I'm trying allow all grep options to be used, or in any combination.
The script works fine if I type say
bgrep -i -files product
it will return a non-case sensitive list of matches for product
however if I type
bgrep -in -files product
I get the same list & no line numbers.
I know why this is happening, it's because the -n option is a valid option for the echo command I am using. I not sure how to get round this. Is there some other command I could use.
I'd appreciate any advice, feel free to criticise.
