I use a command to recursively find files containing a certain string1
:
find . -type f -exec grep -H string1 {} \\;
I need to
with GNU grep
grep -rlZ 'string1' | xargs -0 grep -l 'string2'
from man grep
-r, --recursive
Read all files under each directory, recursively, following symbolic links only if they are on the command line. Note that if no file operand is given, grep searches the working directory. This is equivalent to the -d recurse option.
-Z, --null Output a zero byte (the ASCII NUL character) instead of the character that normally follows a file name. For example, grep -lZ outputs a zero byte after each file name instead of the usual newline. This option makes the output unambiguous, even in the presence of file names containing unusual characters like newlines. This option can be used with commands like find -print0, perl -0, sort -z, and xargs -0 to process arbitrary file names, even those that contain newline characters.
