A one-liner to remove any temporary files modified over one day ago. Removes files from /tmp/ Run without the '-exec rm {} \;' part to check that it is matching the right set of files - this can be dangerous if run by root! If you want to remove files modified today, change +1 to -1 This can be useful to add into crontab though

(Bash) Find a string across multiple files with different extensions - noah

Sun, 28 Jan 2007 07:43:53 GMT

Search many files for a string. This example finds the string "thingy." This is useful when I want to find, say, a CSS class name that has changed, and update it in all of my .js, .jsp and .jspf files. The -niP argument to grep is optional. -n prints line numbers, -i makes search case-insensitive, and -P toggles Perl regular expression syntax. (I'm not sure that -P works under Cygwin.)
