I have a bunch of files organized into directories..All these are text files (c/c++). I am trying to understand this code and i need to look at the declarations of many variables..How can i use find command to get the exact location( File Name with line number(s) ) using Find command in ubuntu linux?? Or is there any graphical tool for doing the same?
Answer:
You can do this with grep.
This will fail if there are sub directories
You can use
-H, --with-filename

grep -n 'search-term' *.c
