Egrep a greater than number
data:
Code:
hello mr smith 400 you all ok?
hello mrs. smith 700 you all ok?
hello mr. everyone 150 you all ok?
hello mr. you all 199 im lad you are ok


using egrep, how can i grep out only lines that have a number greater than 250?

Code:
cat data | egrep .....

can't use awk here. i was wondering if this is possible with egrep?

the numbers can be in any column, but each line will always have "hello mr.*you all ok"

xzfgrep

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 the 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)
