Re: oddity with find -exec grep -i

I think you simply miss --ignore-case in second grep (first grep find it but dont convert the case so the second can't find the pattern) Try add -i to the second grep. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

oddity with find -exec grep -i

Perhaps I am looking straight through things, if so, I'm sorry. I have effectively a one liner shell script that I want to run to see if any text (typically an Email address) is in any file named "users" in any directory below a particular directory, easy I thought: #!/bin/bash /usr/bin/find /
