Hey all...
One of these days I need to learn bash! I need to search through a directory
of text files for a particular string and then report the name of the file(s)
that contain that string. For example
cat *.txt | grep "event_templates/add.php"
merely reports that two files indeed contain the string but it doesn't tell me
which of the 176 files contain the string... Thanks!
You might try:
grep -l "event_templates/add.php" *.txt
(bash has nothing to do with this one)
