I am unfamiliar with Squid, and maybe regexps work differently there, but it looks to me like you need the '?' operator which matches the preceding expression 0 or 1 times, e.g.
does what you want when used as a grep argument.
I want to use find to locate files with two different extensions, and run a grep on the results. The closest I have gotten is incredibly slow and ugly:
for i in `ls -laR|egrep -e '(.js|.css)'`; do find . -name $i -print|xargs grep -H searchBg; done;
This method makes my eyes bleed. Help! ;)

I get no output.
Can anyone tell me why? (6 Replies)

Hi,
I'm trying to validate if a string matches a regular expression, but it is not working. Am I missing something? Do I need to scape any of the characters?

zgrep
ZGREP(1) General Commands Manual ZGREP(1)NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression
SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename...
DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code:
(-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the
standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep.
If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked.
EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified.
