Useless use of 'cat' (grep can open files) > some file like a_1.o12 has WARNING, but others does not have WARNING > > How can I let grep returns the filename? From your explanation it's not clear to me if you want -l or -H, but you might just read 'man grep' and decide for yourself ;) Not familiar with xargs, but you should probably read that manpage too. To answer the question in your subject I think the correct command to use is 'man' :) Kind regards, Andrei -- Offtopic discussions among Debian users and developers: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/d-community-offtopic
