Hello Doru
> how can I use grep to find: myFunction(any_string_or_char) in a

>
grep "myFunction *([^)]*)" *.c
finds any occurrence of
myFunction(any_string_or_char)
myFunction (any_string_or_char)
myFunction (any_string_or_char)
etc. To find a declaration, use
grep "^ *[[:alpha:]]\+ *myFunction *([^)]*) *;" *.c *.h
To find a definition (without a remark on the same line)
grep "^ *[[:alpha:]]\+ *myFunction *([^)]*) *{\? *$" *.c *.h
But anyway, I recommend to use http://ctags.sourceforge.net for such
things.
Have fun!
Mathias
