I've never really used Mac computers much, but I've gotten used to some of the command-line utilities from similar systems such as Linux.  Most of the GNU command-line tools are available for Windows, and typically I install at least grep for Windows, as I tend to use that a lot.  Even though Windows has other ways of searching files, I've gotten used to grep from using Linux.

sed is another I've installed on Windows, though I don't use that one very often.
