I need a regexp for the 3000 that I can use to grep for lines with any 27
chars, followed by 12 blank spaces. I thought a brute force series of dots
and blanks would do it within the shell:
/bin/grep -E "...........................            " S*
and regexp coach says it's a match. But when I grep, I actually get every
record. So what's the secret word?
