> why not just use a russ' g from p9p? > Ok. Maybe. So now I have several propositions:
- g by R Cox - sth similar to g by E Quanstrom - grep -r by R Minnich (actually, this really exists in linux, I didn't know...) - search the archives for mails subjected as : breadth first walking, du and find, from December 2009, by maht - get sth like xargs somewhere, e.g. by J Catena Can anybody comment on these and their differences? I don't know 'g' yet. I'll look at it shortly. Anyway, it seems to me that something like xargs could be of quite general use, so probably also be a better solution than anything like 'grep -r' (adding switches to individual commands to do some job recursively). Thanks R
