Subject: [PATCH] check-non-portable-shell: Check for non portable grep usage
Date: Thu, 25 Apr 2013 20:48:18 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <201304252048.19235.tboegi@web.de> (raw)

The make test-lint could check for some common non portable
grep usage:

The + as a qualifier is not a "basic regular expression".
Some grep understand \+, but in general egrep should be used.

The \t can not be used to find an ASCII TAB, neither
can \s be used to find a whitespace
