find text strings recursively in Linux and UNIX – find grep in sub-directories command examples
ack-grep is a grep like tool, optimized for programmers. This tool isn't aimed to "search all text files". It is specifically created to search source code trees, not trees of text files. It searches entire trees by default while ignoring Subversion, Git and other VCS directories and other files that aren't your source code.
