Just another way to do it....
-------------------------------------
for list in `ls -1t $path`
do
if grep $search_arg > /dev/null
then
echo "${path}/${list}" >> yourfile.txt
fi
done
-------------------------------------
This will output filenames that contain the string you are looking for into "yourfile.txt"
