Hey,
I have a directory and several sub-directory and files reside within
it. I'm wondering is there any command I can use to search for the
certain tring's ocurence? Can any of you help me please?
From the manpage of grep(1):
grep, egrep, fgrep, rgrep - print lines matching a pattern
The -r option to grep might fit your need. Also see find(1) if you
find yourself needing something more selective.
