	The cheaper-than-BBEdit-but-still-not-free replacement for BBEdit Lite 
is TextWrangler:  <http://www.barebones.com/products/textwrangler/>.  
It claims to support grep with Perl-Compatible Regular Expressions 
(PCRE), as well as other features of BBEdit.  HTH.  (Disclaimer: As a 
paid user of BBEdit, I have not tried TextWrangler myself.)
