+# directly into their current namespace:
+#
+#     require 'grep'
+#     include Grep
+#     # do something with grep()

+module Grep
+
+  #
+  # Grep works like a shell grep. `file' can be either a string,
+  # containing the name of a file to load and handle, or an IO object
+  # (such as $stdin) to deal with. `pattern' can be either a string or
+  # Regexp object which contains a pattern. Patterns as strings treat
+  # no part of the string as `special', such as '.' or '?' in a
+  # regex. `pre_context' and `post_context' determine the amount of
+  # lines to return that came before or after the content that was
+  # matched, respectively. If there are overlaps in the context, no
+  # duplicates will be printed.
+  #
+
