Still I'd like to strip it down a bit, given your system allows for "process substitution" and the relevant / applied grep options. Try:
Code:
grep -hirof file.txt * | sort -u | tee >(grep -vif- file.txt | sed 's/$/|missing/') | sed '/|/!s/$/|found/'

Definitely agreeing with you Smilie
I just shook my head when I saw it ha ha!
I just thought, do what they say and trust it Smilie
