I guess, that isn't what he wanted:

-- Not run under Cygwin or a similar program, but rather as a native Windows app

Try these links:

http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/
http://www.steve.org.uk/Software/windows.html

Hope this helps - they are ports of unix/linux (bash) CLI tools to the WSH.

Have you considered using cygwin (a unix shell lookalike) which runs

This next semester, I'd like to have the students in my Corpus
Linguistics class learn to use Grep tools for searching large corpora. I
know there's many great, fast Unix tools, but these students will be
using Windows machines. If possible, the program would have the
following features:

-- Fast, since they'll be working with fairly large corpora (100 million
words and more)
-- Obviously, full regular expressions capability
-- Not run under Cygwin or a similar program, but rather as a native
Windows app

I've already looked at PowerGrep, V-Grep, and TextPad, but none of these
are adequate. Any other suggestions? Thanks in advance.
