The results are correct.  But notice that the case sensitive search took over 7 
1/4 MINUTES; the case INsensitive search took less than 1/20 second.  That's a 
nearly 4 orders of magnitude difference!  I would think that the case 
INsensitive search would involve more processing, and so should take longer.  
What's going on?

You've mixed up your option case.  -i is insensitive.  But both have that.  The 
difference is the -I which means "Grope" is searching all the binary files as 
well.


You nailed it!...

Using 'I' in both grope and Grope, and 'i' in grope only gives the correct 
results.
The case insensitive search takes longer, which makes sense.

I am indeed wanting the searches to skip the binary files (such as ".png" and 
".mkv" files).
I am indeed wanting the searches to take case into account.

Thank-you Samuel.
It's SOLVED!
