    Hi all :))

    First of all, let me thank you for grep :)

    Try this with grep 2.5:

    $ grep --color=auto "a\{0,\}"

    or worse,

    $ grep -o "a\{0,\}"

    Just enter something and hit enter. The first one prints the
default color sequence forever, and the second one writes '\n'
forever. If you don't know what it's happening I can try to isolate
the problem. Feel free to ask me whatever you need, and thanks a lot
in advance :)
