________________________________________________________________________________

grep is a command-line utility for searching plain-text data sets for lines that
match a regular expression. Its name comes from the ed command g/re/p (globally
search for a regular expression and print matching lines), which has the same
effect. grep was originally developed for the Unix operating system, but later
available for all Unix-like systems and some others such as OS-9. [0]

To use GNU grep as the system grep, the alternatives system must be used. The
GNU grep implementation is very fast [1] and is recommended over the default
provided by busybox.

To undo these changes run 'kiss a', find the relevant output and run the
corresponding commands. Each line of output from 'kiss a' is a valid command
to give back to 'kiss a'.
