I call this findgrep:
#!/bin/sh -
if test $# -ne 2
then
echo "Usage: findgrep dir pattern"
exit -1
fi
find $1 -print | xargs grep $2 /dev/null
Note that the /dev/null forces grep to emit the filename even if find only finds one
file.

Subject: Search script
Does some have a script they could share that would do the following
Search through a list of files ie. *.conf
Look for a particular string ie. 'virtual'
If the string is found I would like to display the line and filename that
contained that line.
I can do part of that by doing cat *.conf |grep string but that only
displays the line, not the file in which it was found.
Can someone help me out with the file name part?
Thanks very much.
