I have been trying out egrep on an old text file tabulating American
bulletin boards such as the following.
{
/ Number / Name /Type /Baud rate /Type of BBS
---------------------------------------------------------------
221-0774 /CCIS Hopewell / IBM / 300/1200 /General BBS
}
So I have been applying search terms in a RegEx document supplied by
Scott. Therein I read
"\d Any Digit", and also
"[0-9] Numbers 0 to 9".
I can get one of those phone-number records by searching thus.
egrep '^[0-9]'
But the following selects nothing!
egrep '^\d'
What went wrong?
