Yeah, when you're dealing with something modern like Perl or Ruby it may not make sense to do work 
in external programs.  They handle command line args easily and do pattern matching as well and as 
simply as grep.

So you have to decide whether Jacob's suggestion is more elegant than the ones I suggested, which 
will depend on whether it's more useful to adapt your output to work with grep or to add flexibility 
to work either way.
