Grep command doubt
Hi all,
I need to find the line by using grep command with the two occurence of word in the same line. I tried the below example it prints the word choice.

Code:
cat nohup.out

Dictionary utl is completed.

file is completed.

Dictionary file is completed.

grep 'Dictionary\|file' /nohup.out

Expected output :

Dictionary file is completed.

I would need to find the line which has both the words dictionary and file in the line.

plz disregard. i have tried myself annd the issues fixed.

grep 'Dictionary file' nohup.out

Results are expected.

zgrep

ZGREP(1)						      General Commands Manual							  ZGREP(1)

NAME

       zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression

SYNOPSIS

       zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename...

DESCRIPTION

       Zgrep  invokes  grep  on  compressed  or  gzipped  files.   These  grep	options  will  cause  zgrep  to  terminate  with  an  error  code:
       (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*).  All other options specified are passed directly to grep.  If no file is specified,  then  the
       standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep.  Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep.

       If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked.

EXIT CODE

       2 - An option that is not supported was specified.
