You know, with all of the hype around 'desktop' search tools for Windoze boxes
(which is a horrible thing to have to use to find something), I was thinking
if someone is going to write something for Linux. Then, I thought - 'Hey, I
already know what to write!'
$ find . -exec grep 'string to find' {} \; -print
Sure, there's not spiffy index and binaries don't give great results, but hey
it WFM.
