Unless I really want to narrow the search down I always use -i when grepping source. If you're searching for plain text, fgrep works even better. If you're not familiar with grep, I highly recommend learning how to use it since it can save a lot of time. There's even a dos version available. It may be helpful to use the -n version as well, since it will print the line numbers of the found text. Sam
