According to the link posted I'd use:

find . -exec grep "www.athabasca" {} \;   From your working Directory
find /my_path -exec grep "www.athabasca" {} \;   From whatever path


I've never used the '{}' notation ... try first without the quotes.


From "Shell Script Programming in z/OS UNIX"
(http://www.trainersfriend.com/UNIX_and_Web_courses/u515descr.htm):

"-exec command \;   - runs specified command; if command
                      contains this string {}, the string
                      is replaced by the found file"

also, later...

  find . -name 'string' -exec grep -i fa {} \;

or

  grep -i fa  $(find . -name 'in*')

...

generally the second is faster.
