From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Oh, in that case we don't need to read either - just run a simple grep!

Those malicious coders are too sly for that. Some write "Sh1t" to throw grep off, others even do a "B3g1n"... They are always one step ahead!

Good point. I'd try to grep for something like [Bb3][Ee3]g[Ii1][nη]\w+<and so on> but I just know I'll miss something
