This is my first ever post to this list, so Hi everyone. I'm managed to
install Linux to command prompt level a couple of times in the past but
have always failed hopelessly to get X, modem, sound or basically anything
else set up. I'm planning another attempt after my thesis is submitted in
October...
However, I'm totally stumped (in Cygwin) - how do I rm or grep recursively
on a given filetype, the equivalent of the dos
del /S *.o
say. I've tried
rm -r ./*.o
rm -r *.o
grep -r Hello ./*.c
grep -r Hello *.c
but none of them work! Am I missing something really obvious here?
Cheers - Dave
