Summary:                    bug with grep when the "string" has no a newline at
the end
Description: 
Hi,

there is a bug with grep when a "string" is found in the last line of a
text (for example : my_text).
and only ONE line (no new line at the end) in this file :

hello world


if you makes for example :

grep "he" my_text

the output is :

hello worl

without the last char "d".

this problem appears with busybox-1.1.3
but with a newline at the end there is no problem.


Regards,
Mathieu SCHROETER
