Outline Grep
============

Given a text file with a Python-style indentation structure, `ogrep`
searches the file for a regular expression. It prints matching lines, with
their "parent" lines as context. For example, if input.txt looks like this:

2009-01-01
New Year's Day!
No work today.
Visit with family.
2009-01-02
Grocery store and library.
2009-01-03
Stay home.
2009-01-04
Back to work.
Remember to set an alarm.

then `ogrep work input.txt` will produce the following output:

2009-01-01
New Year's Day!
No work today.
2009-01-04
Back to work.

Installation
------------

Get the source code: `git clone git://github.com/mbrubeck/outline-grep.git; cd
outline-grep`

OS X or Windows users, download the [Haskell Platform][1]. Then type `cabal
install`.

[1]: http://hackage.haskell.org/platform/

Debian/Ubuntu users, run: `sudo apt install libghc-regex-posix-dev`,
then run:

./Setup.lhs configure
./Setup.lhs build
sudo ./Setup.lhs install

Or to try the program without building and installing it, just run
`./OutlineGrep.lhs` in the source directory after installing the Haskell
Platform (or the libghc6-regex-posix-dev package).
