Not just grep, all the Unix "text" utils, plus some extras.  I've 
mentioned these tools before in more detail [1,2] (with [2] ironically 
in another reply to one of Mike's posts :), but it's worth it to do again.

Stand-alone, Windows native .exe files. These are *great*! No installer, 
no DLLs, nothing but sort,cut,grep,awk,sed,date.exe, and much more. 
You'll want to rename date.exe to udate or gdate or something so you 
don't collide with the built-in date command. See also gclip/pclip which 
allow reading and writing the clipboard from the command line. The only 
downside is that these have not been updated in a long time. They 
usually Just Work, though I have encountered a few bugs in date.exe, 
which I use quite a lot.

For a lot more tools and details, see [1].

Later,

"Microsoft Tax" = the additional hardware & yearly fees for the add-on
software required to protect Windows from its own poorly designed and
implemented self, while the overhead incidentally flattens Moore's Law.
