Subject: | [bug-grep] -X option undocumented (in --help, doc/grep.1, doc/grep.texi) |

The current discussion about using "egrep" and "fgrep" instead of "grep -E" and "grep -F" reminded me of a simple fact that I noticed. The '-X' option, and in particular its use with the "awk" matcher ("-X awk") is undocumented. In the "--help" text, a line such as " -X MATCHER PATTERN is a MATCHER regular expression" could be added right after the '-P' one. The '-X' option also goes undocumented in "doc/grep.1" and "doc/grep.texi".
