not org specific, but ,----[ C-h f helm-do-grep RET ] | helm-do-grep is an interactive autoloaded Lisp function in | `helm-grep.el'. | | It is bound to C-x c M-g s, <menu-bar> <tools> <Helm> <Tools> <Grep>. | | (helm-do-grep) | | Preconfigured helm for grep. | Contrarily to Emacs `grep', no default directory is given, but | the full path of candidates in ONLY. | That allow to grep different files not only in `default-directory' but anywhere | by marking them (C-<SPACE>). If one or more directory is selected | grep will search in all files of these directories. | You can also use wildcard in the base name of candidate. | If a prefix arg is given use the -r option of grep (recurse). | The prefix arg can be passed before or after start file selection. | See also `helm-do-grep-1'. `---- is very good at this. -- cheers, Thorsten
