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.

script - make record of a terminal session
SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION
The script utility makes a record of everything printed on your screen. The record is written to filename. If no file name is given, the
record is saved in the file typescript. See WARNINGS.
The script command forks and creates a sub-shell, according to the value of $SHELL, and records the text from this session. The script ends
when the forked shell exits or when Control-d is typed.
OPTIONS
The following option is supported:
-a Appends the session record to filename, rather than overwriting it.
NOTES
script places everything that appears on the screen in filename, including prompts.
