kgrep searches through a file or files for a specified pattern and displays the target line containing the pattern as well as a certain number of lines on either side of the target line. GNU grep can do this with the -A, -B and -C switches, and other platform-specific grep implementations may have similar functionality. The main advantage to kgrep is that it's small and can be easily used on any system that has Perl5 installed, rather than going through the hassle of installing a different grep binary (this is actually what the author uses it for most often).
