    WV> Strange... On my linux in bash these give the same result:   
      
    WV> # echo 1:1/1 | grep 1:1/1   
    WV> 1:1/1   
      
    WV> # echo 1:1/1 | grep "1:1/1"   
    WV> 1:1/1   
      
   yes, macos confirmed.   
      
    WV> There is an alias for grep:   
    WV> alias grep='grep --color=auto'   
      
    WV> But that shouldn't make a difference. Maybe on ubuntu it's different?
