It lets you grep through a list of files.  Files may contain space in their
names.  The most important thing is concatenated length of the file names is
not a restricting factor.  i.e. grep unlimited number of files.

I'm not sure what the command line length limit is for other OS, but on
Vista, it's pretty short.
