How to select the shortest path in grep search?
Hi,

How can I display only one shortest path (A/B/configure)?

Code:
$ grep configure file.txt

A/B/configure
A/B/C/configure
A/B/C/D/configure

Thank you.

NAME

       burn-configure - create a configuration file for burn(1)

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       burn-configure  is  a  configuration utility for burn(1). Burn ("Burn until recorded, now!") is a tool for writing optical media of various
