& grep() Syntax: grep(<object>,<attrs>,<pattern>) This function returns a list of attributes on <object> containing <pattern>. <attrs> is a wildcard pattern for attribute names to search; if you want to search all attributes, use "*". Parsing does occur before this function is invoked. Therefore, "special" characters will need to be escaped out. <pattern> is not wildcard matched. This function is case-sensitive. grepi() is a case insensitive version. See Also: grepi()
