To search subdirectories, do something like this:
grep -S "searchtext" *.txt
grep -S "searchtext" \personal\files\*.txt
grep -S searchtext C:\*.*
The most recent version I compiled is GREP20d_WIN.ZIP. It was released on January 26, 2001.
Revisions (Jan 26, 2001)
* 2.0b Fixed display of filenames (-h option, as well as decision to print them based on number of files being checked)
* 2.0c Fixed display of paths if the "-l" option was used with wildcards
* 2.0d Jan 26, 2001
o Fixed display of paths if the "-c" option was used with wildcards
o Changed code to accept standard in from piped output. With earlier versions, the "-" was required to expicitly indicate that redirection was being used.
Note
Versions before 2.0d did not work well with redirection, such as:
dir *.* /sub | grep -i DLL | more
This will nearly always cause a crash with versions of grep/windows before 2.0d. In these cases, use explicit rediretion, or upgrade to version 2.0d. The explicit redirection syntax is:
dir *.* /sub | grep -i DLL - | more
