Even easier in zsh
Authored by: chtito on Feb 23, '05 02:49:54PM
great! I've been using zsh for years (and fully agree it's a terrific shell), was aware of the '**' feature but it never occured to me that it could be used to replace the rather clumsy find/grep combination. Thanks!

Let me also add that for those who are versed in regular expressions, egrep should be used in place of grep (as far as i understood).
