because it tells you the file in which the text pattern was found :).
Discouraged because:
- it's possible to hit maxarglen if the root directory has many
subdirectories.
xargs is usefull too. i would it as forking for each
file will make processing really slow. xargs can cut input data into given
chunks with -n option, so grep will be called for say 100 files at once.
