Hi, I'm trying to figure out how to find a certain string inside a bunch of files. If I, for examples, look for a certain function in a large source tree, I could do
cat `find . -name '*.c'` | grep 'a_certain_function' but this seems quite awkward, furthermore it doesn't help that much because I don't know in which file the string was found. Maybe there's a tool that makes it possible to find a string in a bunch of files and also to list in which file the string was found? Or any modification to the command given above?
