I would like to search all files in the current und subdirs for a
char_string.
Why does this commandstring not work?:
ls -R | grep char_string
No error , no nothing - although this certain char_string is in a
simple ASCII text file!

I use
find . -type f | xargs mogrep $1

what to do with binary and compressed files. -chris

Therefore you have to do something like that:
find . -exec grep -H char_string {} \;

Unfortunately mogrep as implemented relies on the file
names to determine the file type. A neater way might
be to use the 'file' command to determine the file
type
eg:
