Findme

This is a nice little script that will recursively search the current directory for a string

The search_string and file_mask use regex... you have been warned :)

#!/bin/bash
if [ "$1" = "" ]; then
  echo "Usage: $0 <search_string> [file_mask]";
else
  if [ ! "$2" = "" ]; then
    MYMASK=$2
  else
    MYMASK=.
  fi
  find . -type f -not -path '*/.svn*' -not -path '*/.git*' -printf "%p\n" | while read f; do
    if [ ! "$(echo "$f" | grep -E -- "$MYMASK")" = "" ]; then
      if [ ! "$(cat "$f" | grep -i -E -- "$1")" = ""  ] ; then
        echo -e "\0033[93m$f\0033[0m"
        grep -inTE -C2 --color=always -- "$1" "$f"
        echo -en "\0033[94m"
        echo -n "~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"
        echo -n "~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"
        echo -e "\0033[0m"
      fi;
    fi;
  done;
