According to the link posted I'd use:find . -exec grep "www.athabasca" {} \; From your working Directory find /my_path -exec grep "www.athabasca" {} \; From whatever path I've never used the '{}' notation ... try first without the quotes.
From "Shell Script Programming in z/OS UNIX" (http://www.trainersfriend.com/UNIX_and_Web_courses/u515descr.htm): "-exec command \; - runs specified command; if command contains this string {}, the string is replaced by the found file" also, later... find . -name 'string' -exec grep -i fa {} \; or grep -i fa $(find . -name 'in*') ... generally the second is faster.
