Thanks for the suggestion; I will take a look at the scriptselector you mention. In the meantime I came up with a solution that uses just existing ant and ant-contrib constructs. Here it is in case others are interested: />

My humblest apologies--I did not state my problem clearly. I want to find a set of files whose contents (not the file name) includes a string based on the name of the file containing it. That is, for each file path/xxx.yyy, I want to know if the file contains a string like this: "See doc page at
