I would like to add a hint to the Cygwin Tools: http://cygwin.com/

These tools provide a unix-like environment for Windows95/98/NT under the motto: "never leave unix without it". They provide a bash, sed, awk, find, ... many many GNU-Tools and last not least grep as requested in the original posting.
