From the grep man-page:

Recurse in directories only searching file matching

GNU grep is not a coreutil, so this isn't the best mailing list for grep
questions.
What type of PATTERN can be used here (i.e. glob, regex, extended
regex, etc.)?
I just tried a few patterns, and it seems to be glob-like, but without
support for {x,y} constructs. * and ? wildcards and [a-z] ranges appear
to work.
