Subject: [9fans] Is there a Plan 9 equivalent of the find command
Date: Sun, 10 Jun 2007 13:32:25 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <45609539-34EC-4F53-AECF-769F401EC6F0@tinker.com> (raw)
This is probably me just stuck in the UNIX mind set again. I have
looked through the commands and I don't see anything that does what
find does. What I am trying to do is look in a directory that has
many files and subdirectories and find any file that contains a string.
In UNIX, I would do something like this.
find . -type f -exec grep some_pattern {} \; -print
What is the Plan 9 way?
Thanks,
Kim
