disable bold font and coloring in grep
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
I want to use the output of command:
fdisk -l | grep -i "/dev"
in my bash script. 
But the problem is that it bold and highlight/color the matched output. I don't want that. I only want to print the lines that matched the criteria.

Your shell has probably a defined alias. alias grep='grep --color=auto' is rather common in ~/.bash_aliases or ~/.bashrc. You can remove the alias or replace it with
grep --color=never
You can of course use grep --color=never manually instead when you don't want colors, as it expands to grep --color=auto --color=never and the latter option overrules the former.
See grep --help, man grep or info "(grep)General Output Control" for more information.

Your shell has probably a defined alias. alias grep='grep --color=auto' is rather common in ~/.bash_aliases or ~/.bashrc. You can remove the alias or replace it with
grep --color=never
You can of course use grep --color=never manually instead when you don't want colors, as it expands to grep --color=auto --color=never and the latter option overrules the former.
See grep --help, man grep or info "(grep)General Output Control" for more information.
