    I'm using Turbo Grep 5.5 from Delphi 7. The '^' "match anything but"
    operator doesn't appear to be working when used with Windows 2000 or
    XP.

    My test file is:
    1be
    2ab
    3eb

    And I want to search for lines where 'b' or 'e' is not the second
    character and 'b' or 'e' is the third character. The command which
    should do this, and which *works fine in Windows 98*, is "grep -i
    [0-9][^be][be] test". However in Windows 2000 and XP I get the
    following output:

    C:\TEMP>grep -i [0-9][^be][be] test
    File test:
    1be
    3eb

    The above results are *wrong*. Is this a known bug?
