Comment 0 for bug 1071447

Hello,

1) Description: Ubuntu 12.10
Release: 12.10

2) grep:
  Installed: 2.12-2
  Candidate: 2.12-2
  Version table:
 *** 2.12-2 0
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal/main i386 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

3) grep -irn <grep-text> should not give any output if i do not specify path of file, and also cat tejasbarot.txt | grep -irn "tejasbarot"
should not give any output if there is no matching text in tejas.txt

4)Let's say, There is one text file called tejasbarot.txt and written text "tejasbarot.com" in that file, Now If I execute grep -in "tejasbarot" and Press Enter it is pausing on terminal and Not executing command,This is expected behavior.

But If I execute grep -irn "tejasbarot123" without specifying file's path it is searching in Current Working Directory and if i am search in this way cat tejasbarot.txt | grep -irn "tejasbarot123" even if its not matching the text it is trying to search in all files of current working directory.

So I feel that specifying -r with grep command is not providing correct result. This is very basic package and consider as major bug of grep.

Expecting very quick fix on the same.

Thanks & Regards,
Tejas Barot
