agrep (approximate grep) is an open-source approximate string matching program, developed by Udi Manber and Sun Wu between 1988 and 1991, [1] for use with the Unix operating system. It was later ported to OS/2, DOS, and Windows.
An alternative set of ported programs is UnxUtils; these are usually older versions, but depend only on the Microsoft C-runtime msvcrt.dll. There is a package maintenance utility, GetGnuWin32, to download and install or update current versions of all GnuWin32 packages.
A port of an older version of GNU xargs is available for Microsoft Windows as part of the UnxUtils collection of native Win32 ports of common GNU Unix-like utilities. [2] A ground-up rewrite named wargs is part of the open-source TextTools [3] project. The xargs command has also been ported to the IBM i operating system. [4]

UnxUtils is a collection of ports of common GNU Unix-like utilities to native Win32, with executables only depending on the Microsoft C-runtime msvcrt.dll.The collection was last updated externally on April 15, 2003, by Karl M. Syring.
The pcregrep command is an implementation of grep that uses Perl regular expression syntax. [17] Similar functionality can be invoked in the GNU version of grep with the -P flag. [18] Ports of grep (within Cygwin and GnuWin32, for example) also run under Microsoft Windows. Some versions of Windows feature the similar qgrep or findstr command. [19]
