## igrep.el

This package is a frontend to grep, and includes functions to recursively search for text in files that are in a whole directory structure. The package is described in Hour 8. You can also find it in Kevin Rodger's /opt/share/emacs-lisp/users/kevinr/igrep.el directory on the CD.

To use this package, insert the following lines to your .emacs file.

    ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; the igrep package
    ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
    (autoload (function igrep) "igrep"
    "*Run ´grep´ PROGRAM to match EXPRESSION in FILES..." t)
    (autoload (function igrep-find) "igrep"
    "*Run ´grep´ via ´find´..." t)
    (autoload (function dired-do-igrep) "igrep"
    "*Run ´grep´ on the marked (or next prefix ARG) files." t)
    (autoload (function dired-do-igrep-find) "igrep"
    "*Run ´grep´ via ´find´ on the marked (or next prefix ARG) directories." t)
    (autoload (function grep) "igrep"
    "*Run ´grep´ PROGRAM to match EXPRESSION in FILES..." t)
    (autoload (function egrep) "igrep" "*Run ´egrep´..." t)
    (autoload (function fgrep) "igrep" "*Run ´fgrep´..." t)
    (autoload (function agrep) "igrep" "*Run ´agrep´..." t)
    (autoload (function grep-find) "igrep" "*Run ´grep´ via ´find´..." t)
    (autoload (function egrep-find) "igrep" "*Run ´egrep´ via ´find´..." t)
    (autoload (function fgrep-find) "igrep" "*Run ´fgrep´ via ´find´..." t)
    (autoload (function agrep-find) "igrep" "*Run ´agrep´ via ´find´..." t)
    (autoload (function dired-do-grep) "igrep"
    "*Run ´grep´ on the marked (or next prefix ARG) files." t)
    (autoload (function dired-do-grep-find) "igrep"
    "*Run ´grep´ via ´find´ on the marked (or next prefix ARG) directories." t)

If you use GNU Emacs version 19, you also need to install the package cust-stub.el.
