"fgrep STRING /foo/bar/**/*.c" will look for the named string in all *.c files in /foo/bar and in all its subdirectories, recursively (and is much faster than "fgrep -R STRING /foo/bar/**/* --include='*.c'" you will need without the ** feature). Likewise, "ls -ltrd d:/**/*.log" will produce a listing of all the *.log files on drive D:, in the order they were created/modified.
