Having used ack for some time now, I find it much better for my development purposes than grep. But then I've heard about rak and grin. Has anyone used all three of them and can provide a comparison?

that's the place where I've learned about grin and rake. Still it doesn't compare these tools. I want to know whether it's worth to make an effort and try out grin and rak. – sumek Feb 5 '10 at 20:24

I would love to see some sort of comparison of features that I could put up at http://betterthangrep.com/ Although it's the home of ack, I want it to have info about other tools that are better than grep, too.
