How do I get grep to work properly in a regular cmd.exe?
> grep -o 'ProductVersion\".*\".*\"' foo.txt | grep -o '[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+'
foo.txt:ProductVersion" Value="59.59.140.59"
grep: |: No such file or directory
grep: grep: No such file or directory
grep: [0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+: No such file or directory
and
> grep -o 'ProductVersion\".*\".*\"' foo.txt >> blah.txt
foo.txt:ProductVersion" Value="59.59.140.59"
grep: >>: No such file or directory
grep: blah.txt: No such file or directory
