You might try the -H option to grep. It produces output like this, which might be a cleaner output: $ grep -H 'Senator' *.qif cash.qif:PSenator Inn cp91.qif:PThe Senator Inn & Conf Ctr cp92.qif:PSenator Inn & Conference Center cp.qif:PThe Senator Inn & Conf Ctr cp.qif:PSenator Inn cp.qif:ASenator Inn & Conference Cente -- Jan Wilson, SysAdmin _/*]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Corozal Junior College | |:' corozal.com corozal.bz Corozal Town, Belize | /' chetumal.com & linux.bz Reg.
