Unix/Solaris find in files ?

[dmarsh26]

Hello,

Does anyone have a quick and easy way to search by filename and text file content inside zip and tar files on solaris ?

thanks !

Hm - can't think of an easy way for tar files, but check if your copy of Solaris has gzgrep for gzip files. (zip files in the unix world aren't normaly that common - are these really zip and not gzip?)

Otherwise create a empty temp directory and write a script to untar/unzip, then do a find + grep.

Edit: File name search is easy for tar files - tar -t + grep.
