Physical File GREP (PFGREP): Fast IBM i Source Code Search Alan Seiden

​[[{“value”:”Our 2023 article on searching source physical file members using the QShell grep command showed grep’s potential. In practice, while we found QShell grep to be flexible, we also experienced slow performance and occasional errors. Now, our own Calvin Buckley has built an improved grep command called pfgrep to search traditional IBM i source physical file members. Quick and reliable, pfgrep is also free and open source. Installation Detailed installation instructions are found on the pfgrep Github page, but here are the basic three installation methods: Download the .rpm file from the Github site, then install via yum Seiden Group…
