Sorry, late to pay attention to this--assuming it hasn't been suggested, how about the traditional Unix command pipeline: find . -type f -print | xargs grep "some text" where you can substitute the appropriate directory for the "." if that's your wish (and yes, I know the "-print" is redundant in the Linux/GNU version of find...). Oh, and use the appropriate version of grep, too--grep, egrep, etc., if you wish. -- Dave Ihnat [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
