Thanks guys for your reply, egrep does the trick.
Now if wanted to change directory from home to "test" directory and do egrep what can I add to the beginning of the line so it changes directory and greps at the same time:
egrep -i -n error cl_less.out
Also I do egrep for a few files at the same time, they have different names so there is no pattern, I just add them one after the other and execute.
but there is an egrep I perform where there is a pattern:
egrep -i -n error cl_less1.out cl_less2.out cl_less3.out cl_less4.out
How can shorten this command and egrep just for these files.
Again your help is most appreciated!!!

GZGREP(1) General Commands Manual GZGREP(1)
NAME
gzgrep, gzegrep, gzfgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression
SYNOPSIS
gzgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename...
DESCRIPTION
gzgrep is used to invoke the grep on compress'ed or gzip'ed files. All options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is speci-
fied, 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 gzgrep is invoked as gzegrep or gzfgrep then egrep or fgrep is used instead of grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, gzgrep
uses it as the grep program to be invoked. For example:
for sh: GREP=fgrep gzgrep string files
for csh: (setenv GREP fgrep; gzgrep string files)
