BackupPC_zcat behaves like cat, simply concatenating multiple arguments.
You should write a short shell script that iterates through each file, eg
in bash:
for file in /Bobby/pc/*/XferLOG.*.z ; do echo $file ; BackupPC_zcat $file |
egrep "*headphone*" ; done
As well as the last modified date?
Typically mtimes don't appear in the XferLOG file, so you'll need to use
the BackupPC_ls approach instead (which will produce an accurate list of
files, whereas the XferLOG file might not show unchanged files depending on
the Xfer method and log level etc).
