<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks for the suggestion. I see there are already lots of other symbolic links for many flavors (or flavours) of “grep” in /opt/local/bin so I added one for “ggrep”. It seems that Homebrew provides “ggrep” and that is what the Modules
package developers use to look for the GNU grep on Macs.<o:p></o:p></p>

Mac systems, but I don’t find it in MacPorts. I tried to re-install Modules 3.2.10 from source but it was having trouble finding the correct libraries, so I looked around and found the new Modules 4.1.3 on SourceForge last updated this month. I downloaded
that and tried to install, but it seems that the new 4.1.3 version is looking for “ggrep”:<span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
