In order to ensure against spoofing, I have certain commands defined
in my functions file in variables.  $grep is just /bin/grep (simpler
notation inside the file - I use it in a lot of places).  Same with
$find,$egrep and a couple of others I don't recall offhand.

I gotta remember to expand all that stuff when I post...

Thanks.
