PowerShell equivalent to grep -f

The -Pattern parameter in Select-String supports an array of patterns. So the one you're looking for is:

Get-Content .\doc.txt | Select-String -Pattern (Get-Content .\regex.txt)

This searches through the textfile doc.txt by using every regex(one per line) in regex.txt

PS) new-alias grep findstr
PS) C:\WINDOWS> ls | grep -I -N exe

105:-a---        2006-11-02     13:34      49680 twunk_16.exe
106:-a---        2006-11-02     13:34      31232 twunk_32.exe
109:-a---        2006-09-18     23:43     256192 winhelp.exe
110:-a---        2006-11-02     10:45       9216 winhlp32.exe

PS) grep /?

I'm not familiar with grep but with Select-String you can do:

Get-ChildItem filename.txt | Select-String -Pattern <regexPattern>

You can also do that with Get-Content:

(Get-Content filename.txt) -match 'pattern'
