It would be relatively easy to do in perl, suggested logic is to read in a paragraph, check for the word, print if found. Only takes a few lines of code.I'm looking for a grep-like script that searches for a given word, and returns the paragraphs in which it appears (rather than the lines), where a paragraph is defined as the material between 2 blank lines. All suggestions gratefully received.
If by "looking for" you mean finding a script which does you what you want, I don't know where you find it, it's a bit trivial to bother to save.
