Not having used Highlighter yet, what, if any improvements does it have over BareGrep?

Hey Mubix,
Thanks for stopping by. I really recommend you check out Highlighter to (literally) see the differences yourself. The most immediate improvement over any grep implementation we’ve seen is that Highlighter shows the structure of the file you’re looking at. You instantly see anomalies in structured files (e.g., logs) graphically and can quickly hone in on why they are anomalous. With grep, you have to know what you’re looking for before you start. With Highlighter, that is not necessarily the case. Also, while some grep-fu will pull out the regex or string you’re looking for, it’s not always easy to keep the context of that hit in-mind.
Go grab a Web log with some SQL injection and you’ll quickly see what I’m talking about.
