find ./ -name *PATH* -print
this will list all files in the current and any sub-directories that
contain PATH in the filename. find is one of the most value commands as
it can
be linked in with any other command with the -exec switch. It is well
worth
thoroughly learning it.
grep -rl PATH *
will list any files that contain PATH in the file itself in the current
and any
sub-directory.
