However, the VMS box does have a way to specify a recursive
form of glob so that ...
search [.src...]*.c;* somestring
would perform what most have been talking about. The three
dots in the brackets (which specify directory) specify a recursive
form of globbing.
That said, I'm not proud that I know this... more of a war
wound.
Dave.
