| Nov 30, 2011 at 7:15 | comment | added | Matteo | I was just being over-precise: I would assume the same, I almost never used the -Z flag anyway :-) | |

True, I assumed that the file name won't have :. Crap! :)

| Nov 30, 2011 at 6:43 | comment | added | Matteo | @Jaypal GPT_Parser.sh does not contain a ':' character. awk splits on : how could it recognize if the : is part of the name? Or did I miss something? Try with a file named "test:file:with:.txt" | |

Why would it Matteo, I tried this on my computer and got this - [jaypal:~/Temp] grep -n -r "*p*" ./ | awk -F: '{print $2,$1}' 50 ./backup/GTP_Parser.sh 55 ./backup/GTP_Parser.sh

| Nov 30, 2011 at 6:36 | comment | added | Matteo | @Jaypal the -Z is there to be able to recognize filenames with a : in the name itself. The last solution would strip part of files like "Report: January.txt" | |

Ahh you are correct. It should be grep -n -r $pattern $path | awk -F: '{print $2,$1}'

Wouldn't the -Z and -F: not match here, @Jaypal ? You would want to replace the \0 character explicitly: grep -rZn "$pattern" "$path" | awk -F: {sub(/\0/,":",$1);print $1}'

or pipe it to awk like this grep -rZn $pattern $path | awk -F: '{print $2,$1}' and get pretty results! :)

Awesome - thanks much for that. Especially including the sed bit.
