probably the easiest thing to do is write up a little wrapper for grep
like so:

if [ -z $1 ] ; then
echo "please enter file type"

echo "please enter search pattern"

for FILE in `find . -type f -name "*$1" -exec grep -il $2 {} \; ` ; do

Wow. That's a whole education in bash scripting. I think it will
work. It chokes on directories with spaces in them, but that's because
I haven't renamed all the dirs I copied over from Windows yet. I will.
The following works with filenames with spaces. It
displays the filename after the text match, though.
find . -type f -name "*$1" -exec sh -c "grep --color -i $2 '{}' && \
echo '**** echo {}' && echo" \;
