Strange, it should... It does work here as well. The [] denote a
"set" of characters, but in this case there is only one so there's no
reason to use it. I suspect it may have been [Ff]inder at some point,
matching upper or lower case F in front of inder. But I'd probably
just use grep -i finder in that case, and let it find any combination
of upper and lower case. But you always have to be careful to only
match what you REALLY want so something else doesn't trip you up.
