Is this a homework assignment? This is the wrong forum for homework assignments.

Have you looked at your input file? Do you see any lowercase letters in your input file?
Do you see any occurrences of CONNECT or connect in your input file?

Your command:
Code:
grep -wnv atom connect ter 4hkd.txt

is looking for the string atom (in lowercase) and printing every line that does not contain a word that matches that string (preceded by its line number) from the files connect, ter, and 4hkd.txt.

NAME
Tk_InternAtom, Tk_GetAtomName - manage cache of X atoms SYNOPSIS
#include <tk.h> Atom Tk_InternAtom(tkwin, name) const char * Tk_GetAtomName(tkwin, atom) ARGUMENTS
Tk_Window tkwin (in) Token for window. Used to map atom or name relative to a particular display. const char *name (in) String name for which atom is desired. Atom atom (in) Atom for which corresponding string name is desired. _________________________________________________________________ DESCRIPTION
These procedures are similar to the Xlib procedures XInternAtom and XGetAtomName. Tk_InternAtom returns the atom identifier associated with string given by name; the atom identifier is only valid for the display associated with tkwin. Tk_GetAtomName returns the string associated with atom on tkwin's display. The string returned by Tk_GetAtomName is in Tk's storage: the caller need not free this space when finished with the string, and the caller should not modify the contents of the returned string. If there is no atom atom on tkwin's display, then Tk_GetAtomName returns the string "?bad atom?". Tk caches the information returned by Tk_InternAtom and Tk_GetAtomName so that future calls for the same information can be serviced from the cache without contacting the server. Thus Tk_InternAtom and Tk_GetAtomName are generally much faster than their Xlib counterparts, and they should be used in place of the Xlib procedures. KEYWORDS
atom, cache, display Tk Tk_InternAtom(3)
