gr

Usage(Edit)

This shell script is a handy way to spiff up "grep -r" a bit. It ignores the .svn/ and locale/ dirs, plus it will automatically append "." as the directory to search. Nothing much, but a handy one to put in ~/bin/gr

Code(Edit)

#!/bin/sh

NEEDLE="$1"
HAYSTACK="$2"
[ "$HAYSTACK" == "" ] && HAYSTACK=.
grep --color --exclude-dir=locale --exclude-dir=.svn -r "$NEEDLE" "$HAYSTACK"
