+
+# Useful for greping in a subversion working copy.  
+# Essentially it behaves the same way your grep command does (in fact it
+# ultimately calls the grep command on your path) with a few exceptions.
+# Ignores the subversion admin directories (.svn) and vi(m) backup files.
+# Recursive is always on with or without -r.
+# Always print filename and line numbers.
+# Ignores binary files.
+# If no path is given the current working directory is searched not stdin.
+# Other than that it will take any parameter or pattern your standard grep
+# does.
+# 
+# This script requires GNU findutils and by default GNU grep (though that
+# can be changed with environment variables).
+# 
+# There are three environment variables you can set that modify the default
+# behavior:
+#
+# WCGREP_GREP      Controls what command is used for the grep command.
+#                  If unset or null wcgrep will use the command named grep.
+# WCGREP_GREPARGS  Controls what arguments are always passed to the grep
+#                  command before the arguments given on the command line.
+#                  If unset or null it defaults to -HnI (always print file
+#                  names, line numbers and ignore binary files).  If you wish
+#                  to set no default args set the variable to a space (" ").
+# WCGREP_IGNORE    Controls what files are ignored by the grep command.
+#                  This is a regex that is passed to the find command with
+#                  -regex so see find's man page for details.  If unset or
+#                  null defaults to '.*~$\|.*/\.svn\(/\|$\)', which will
+#                  ignore vim backup files and subversion admin dirs.
