Re: Search in specific file type

Hi,
You can do it using the following command line:

$ global -P '\.cpp$' | global -L- -gx foo

This command line searches 'foo' in cpp files.

1. "global -P <pattern>" makes a find(1) like file list.
2. "global -L- -g" read a file list from standard input
   instead of arguments and grep them.

Regards,
Shigio
