word wrap issue with grep
in my HP-Unix environment I continue to have issues seeing the whole file path when I do a grep
Example:
>ps -ef |grep test
>[process id, etc] /testpath/is/here/
should see:
>ps -ef |grep test
>[process id, etc] /testpath/is/here/not/here/test
Is there a setting to turn word wrap on/off? It works fine in our AIX environments...
TIA
Andrew

I am using vi to edit shell scripts, but whenever I get to the end of the line it goes to the next line, and when I run the script it considers whatever was placed onthe next line a new command...I guess this has to do with word wrap- how do I continue to write on one line? (3 Replies)

XZGREP(1) XZ Utils XZGREP(1)
NAME
xzgrep - search compressed files for a regular expression
SYNOPSIS
xzgrep [grep_options] [-e] pattern file...
xzegrep ...
xzfgrep ...
lzgrep ...
lzegrep ...
lzfgrep ...
DESCRIPTION
xzgrep invokes grep(1) on files which may be either uncompressed or compressed with xz(1), lzma(1), gzip(1), or bzip2(1). All options
specified are passed directly to grep(1).
If no file is specified, then standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep(1). When reading from standard input, gzip(1)
and bzip2(1) compressed files are not supported.
If xzgrep is invoked as xzegrep or xzfgrep then egrep(1) or fgrep(1) is used instead of grep(1). The same applies to names lzgrep, lze-
grep, and lzfgrep, which are provided for backward compatibility with LZMA Utils.
ENVIRONMENT
GREP If the GREP environment variable is set, xzgrep uses it instead of grep(1), egrep(1), or fgrep(1).
SEE ALSO
grep(1), xz(1), gzip(1), bzip2(1), zgrep(1)
