NAME
       mgrep - search mimencoded files for a regular expression

SYNOPSIS
       mgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename...

DESCRIPTION
       Mgrep is used to invoke the grep on mimencoded files. All options spec‐
       ified are passed directly to grep.  If no file is specified,  then  the
       standard	 input	is  mimdecoded	and  fed to grep.  Otherwise the given
       files are mimdecoded and fed to grep.

       If mgrep is invoked as megrep or mfgrep then egrep  or  fgrep  is  used
       instead	of  grep.  If the GREP environment variable is set, mgrep uses
       it as the grep program to be invoked. For example:

	   for sh:  GREP=fgrep	mgrep string files
	   for csh: (setenv GREP fgrep; mgrep string files)
