Code:
find . -name "*.ksh" -type f |
while IFS= read -r fname; do
        for i in 1 2; do
                IFS= read -r line
                case $line in
               'exit 0'|'exit 0;')
                        printf '%s\n' "$fname"
                        break
                esac
        done < "$fname"
done

If they're all in the same directory, then find is not needed and the while-loop can be replaced with for fname in *.ksh; ....

This script also has the advantage of never reading past the second line of a file.

LEARN ABOUT PHP

nsapi_virtual

NSAPI_VIRTUAL(3)							 1							  NSAPI_VIRTUAL(3)

nsapi_virtual - Perform an NSAPI sub-request

SYNOPSIS

       bool nsapi_virtual (string  $uri)

DESCRIPTION

       nsapi_virtual(3)  is  an NSAPI-specific function which is equivalent to <!--#include virtual...--> in SSI ( .shtml files). It does an NSAPI
       sub-request. It is useful for including CGI scripts or .shtml files, or anything else that you'd parse through webserver.

	To run the sub-request, all buffers are terminated and flushed to the browser, pending headers are sent too.

	You cannot make recursive requests with this function to other PHP scripts. If	you  want  to  include	PHP  scripts,  use  include(3)	or
       require(3).

       Note

	       This function depends on a undocumented feature of the Netscape/iPlanet/Sun webservers. Use phpinfo(3) to determine if it is avail-
	      able. In the Unix environment it should always work, in Windows it depends on the name of a ns-httpdXX.dll file.

	       Read the note about subrequests in the NSAPI section (UNIX, Windows) if you experience this problem.

PARAMETERS

	      o $uri
		- The URI of the script.

RETURN VALUES

	Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
