Usage of fgrep -f command in kshell

Hi,

Can I know the usage of fgrep -f command in kshell.

Reqirement: Need to search for list of patterns in list of files and display all the files which are having atleast one in the patterns list.
I hope fgrep -f will serve this purpose within a loop. But I am not successfull in doing this. Can anyone please help me out in this.

* list of files implies a file with filenames(along with its path)
ex: a/d/c/d/e/xyz.txt
d/e/f/g/h/pqr.dat
z/y/x/w/v/rrr.txt

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) AUTHOR
