We ran across a need for this some time ago, and wrote a solution that has worked for us.
In between projects, we discuss how we should publish our code: our own website, sourceforge, girhub, as a post in a thread (as Corona688 has done here, for example, among others). No consensus so far, sigh.
We have agreed that we can at least post the documentation for our utilities in hopes that it may provide motivation for others to use approaches that have worked (at least for us).
So here are some details on our rapgrep -- this is clearly not a one-line suggestion
Code:
rapgrep Require all patterns grep. (what)
Path : ~/bin/rapgrep
Version : 1.2
Length : 307 lines
Type : Perl script, ASCII text executable
Shebang : #!/usr/bin/perl
Help : probably available with [ ]-h
Modules : (for perl codes)
warnings 1.23
strict 1.08
English 1.09
Carp 1.3301
Data::Dumper 2.151_01
Getopt::Long 2.42
and the help :
Code:
Script rapgrep reads files and matches patterns as provided by the
caller. If all patterns successfully match at least once, then
the file name is printed. Some details of the matching results
may be requested to be printed.
usage: rapgrep [options] -- [files]
options:
--all
Force all lines to be searched. The default is to quit if
all matches are successful even if EOF is not read yet.
-e=pattern
Use perl pattern for searching. More than one -e=p may be used.
However, if the control statement becomes unwieldy, see -f.
--file=pathname
Read file at pathname for patterns, one per line. More than
one --filename=path may used. All -e and -f contents are
collected and used. A "#" may be used for comment lines in the
files.
--ignore
Ignore case in matches. Default is case is significant.
--reverse
Invert the sense of success: if a filename normally would
not be printed, then print it; if normally printed, omit it.
--list=rx
List the reasons why a filename is not printed ("r"). List the
details of the pattern matches: how many of which pattern in
what file.
--comment=string
Change the comment character in the pattern files to any in the
string.
--h (or -h)
print this message and quit.
--version
print this message and quit.
Hi,
I want to be able to list all the names in a file which begin with a capital letter, but I don't want it to list words that begin a new sentence. Is there any way round this?
Thanks for your help. (1 Reply)

Hi, all:
I would like to search all files under "./" and its subfolders recursively to find out
those files contain both word "A" and word "B", and list the filenames finally.
How to realize that?

BOGGLE(6) Games Manual BOGGLE(6)NAME
boggle - play the game of boggle
SYNOPSIS
/usr/games/boggle [ + ] [ ++ ]
DESCRIPTION
This program is intended for people wishing to sharpen their skills at Boggle (TM Parker Bros.). If you invoke the program with 4 argu-
ments of 4 letters each, (e.g. "boggle appl epie moth erhd") the program forms the obvious Boggle grid and lists all the words from
/usr/dict/words found therein. If you invoke the program without arguments, it will generate a board for you, let you enter words for 3
minutes, and then tell you how well you did relative to /usr/dict/words.
The object of Boggle is to find, within 3 minutes, as many words as possible in a 4 by 4 grid of letters. Words may be formed from any
sequence of 3 or more adjacent letters in the grid. The letters may join horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. However, no position in
the grid may be used more than once within any one word. In competitive play amongst humans, each player is given credit for those of his
words which no other player has found.
In interactive play, enter your words separated by spaces, tabs, or newlines. A bell will ring when there is 2:00, 1:00, 0:10, 0:02, 0:01,
and 0:00 time left. You may complete any word started before the expiration of time. You can surrender before time is up by hitting
'break'. While entering words, your erase character is only effective within the current word and your line kill character is ignored.
Advanced players may wish to invoke the program with 1 or 2 +'s as the first argument. The first + removes the restriction that positions
can only be used once in each word. The second + causes a position to be considered adjacent to itself as well as its (up to) 8 neighbors.
