Hello
I would like to do a recursive search of directories and files, checking
to see if a file contains a certain string.
<STDIN> will be a string containing whitespace(s).
As soon as I hit enter, I would like dummy.txt to be time stamped and
again at termination.
I'm playing about with 9.85GB (2.57 million files).
If possible, full pathnames of the files containing the string to go to
dummy.txt
I would like to see just how quickly PERL can complete a search, using
Windows search facility I killed the incomplete search after leaving it
to run for almost a day.
thanks
Brian
PS For any statisticians, I'll post the results later. :-)
