Wot, no rgrep?! Those silly Deutschlanders.

rgrep is "recursive" grep. There are debs and RPMs for it. What does SuSE
use?

Odd thing is I couldn't find an online manpage for it. Usually, one
stumbles across man pages all over the place when googling for programs.
Nor could I find the "official" maintainer web site for it.
