Ok. Maybe. So now I have several propositions:

- g by R Cox
- sth similar to g by E Quanstrom
- grep -r by R Minnich (actually, this really exists in linux, I didn't
know...)
- search the archives for mails subjected as : breadth first walking, du and
find, from December 2009, by maht
- get sth like xargs somewhere, e.g. by J Catena

Can anybody comment on these and their differences?
I don't know 'g' yet. I'll look at it shortly. Anyway, it seems to me that
something like xargs could be of quite general use, so probably also be a
better solution than anything like 'grep -r' (adding switches to individual
commands to do some job recursively).

Thanks
