results in color

Hi,
i want to search some pattern from a file and want to highlight the exact pattern with some color. is it possible?? i am able to highlight whole line.How could we go for exact that pattern only.

have you checked

Code:

grep --color

If you are not using grep, what are you using to search the pattern?

How about man sed or man awk and search for the word color??

Other ideas would be to put the words awk or sed and "print in color" in google, I wonder what that might show?
