find . -type f -print0 |xargs -0 grep "string"
should work.
..err...my sugestion is much simple...
grep -e <string> <files>
the for example:
grep -e Daniel *.html
will show me in wich file the line WITH the string "Daniel" will appear.
being more efficient, you can place another flag to show you the exact line
number.
No need of cat, nor more to search on every file on a directory...haven't
tryed yet on a full root search.
Hiope it helps.
