ack is a grep-like program with optimizations for searching through large
trees of source code.
Key improvements include:
* Defaults to only searching program source code
* Defaults to recursively searching directories
* Ignores blib directories.
* Ignores source code control directories, like CVS, .svn and _darcs.
* Uses Perl regular expressions
* Highlights matched text
