[re-adding fink-users] $ grep -e "STRING" -f "/path/to/FILE1" "/path/to/FILE2"
or if all your files are in the same directory $ grep -e "STRING" -r "/path/to/directory/" the -e isnt necessary but its nice to be explicit incase youre string has special characters. You can get grep via fink but its probably already installed (usually part of a stock install for OS X) miket On Sun, 2 Jan 2005 17:11:59 -0500, Jonathan Levi MD <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > ... search for the presence of a user-supplied string in an arbitrary > number of files? > > TIA, Jonathan > > ------------------------------------------------------- > The SF.Net email is sponsored by: Beat the post-holiday blues > Get a FREE limited edition SourceForge.net t-shirt from ThinkGeek. > It's fun and FREE -- well, almost....http://www.thinkgeek.com/sfshirt > _______________________________________________ > Fink-users mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users > ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by: Beat the post-holiday blues Get a FREE limited edition SourceForge.net t-shirt from ThinkGeek.
