Hi,
I'm on a Linux machine with a bash shell. I have some apache logs from where I want to extract the lines that match this pattern :
"GET /dir1/dir2/dir3/bt_sx.gif HTTP/1.1"
but where "/dir1/dir2/dir3/bt_sx" may vary , so I would like to grep something like
cat apache.log | grep "\"GET *.gif\""
which obviously doesn't work.SO I want the lines that contain "GET, space, whatever followed by .gif" ofcourse with these 2 double quotes. In other words I want to use a * wildcard in a regular expression that contains spaces also for a grep pattern. I want to use grep because It think it's faster. But eventually I can use anything else, sed, awk.. etc.
