    instead of regex, which is admittedly more limited than regex.

    grep-similar-to (from App::grep::similar::text lets you specify a text
    and it will only show lines from input that are similar to the provided
    text.

    grep-sounds-like (from App::grep::sounds::like lets you specify a word
    and it will only show lines from input that have words that sound like
    the provided word. You can choose from one of several phonetic
    algorithms like Metaphone (the default), Soundex, etc.

    4a. Variants: alternate source: repository (version control system)
    content and history

    For git, the abovementioned "git-grep" can search for files in the work
    tree as well as commit content. For Mercurial, "hg grep" accomplishes
    the same. Alternatively you can dump the history then use the standard
    "grep" to go through it.

    4b. Variants: alternate source: Perl source code

    pmgrep (from App::pmgrep) lets you grep over locally installed Perl
    modules. It's basically a shortcut for something like this:

     % pmlist -Rx | xargs grep PAT
     % grep PAT $(pmlist -Rx)

    cpangrep (from App::cpangrep) is a CLI for web service
    <https://cpan.grep.me>, which is no longer operating. To grep from files
    on CPAN, use <https://metacpan.org>.

    grepl (from App::Grepl) uses PPI to let you grep over Perl *documents*;
    it allows you to do things like: search only in Perl code comments or
    inside string literals.

    podgrep (from pmtools) greps from POD sections of Perl source.

    4c. Variants: alternate source: CSV

    csvgrep (from csvgrep)

    csv-grep (from App::CSVUtils) allows you to apply Perl code against rows
    of CSV.

    4d. Variants: alternate source: word lists

    wordlist (from App::wordlist) greps words from wordlist modules (modules
    that contains word lists, see WordList).

    4e. Variants: other alternate sources

    grep-bash-history-entries (from App::BashHistoryUtils), with grephist as
    shorter alias.

    grep-from-iod (from App::IODUtils).

    grep-from-ini (from App::INIUtils).

    grep-from-coin (from App::CryptoCurrencyUtils).

    grep-from-exchange (from App::CryptoCurrencyUtils).

    jgrep (from App::JsonLogUtils).

    pdfgrep (alias: grep-from-pdf) (from App::PDFUtils) searches against
    text in PDF files (it's a wrapper for "pdftotext" utility and grep).

    ptargrep (from Archive::Tar) searches against table of contents of tar
    files.

    5a. Variants: searching URLs

    grep-url (from App::grep::url) greps URLs from lines of input. You don't
    have to manually specify regex that matches URLs yourself; you can just
    add additional criteria for the URLs, e.g. whether the host part must
    contain some text, or whether a certain query parameter must match some
    pattern.

    5b. Variants: searching dates

    grep-date (from App::grep::date) greps for dates in lines of text.

    dategrep (from App::dategrep) prints lines matching a date range.
