Hello,
I am having a bit of trouble with the find command. I am a novice in its use
so maybe someone can help me out here.
I have a list of files (hundreds) in directory . and need to search through
and delete every file that contains the word foo.
Some of my failed attemps...
find . -exec grep -i "foo" -ok -delete {} \;
find . -exec grep -l 'foo' -ok -delete {}\;
find . -exec grep "foo" {}\; | xargs rm
Thanks for any help.
Matt
