How do I output or echo NONE if grep does not find anything?
I am performing a grep command and I need to know how to echo "NONE" or "0" to my file if grep does not find what i am looking for.
echo What i found >> My_File grep "SOMETHING" >> My_File I am sure this is easy, I am sort of new at this! Thanks
