File this under #shell #functions I should have written years ago:

function grepc { #Do a grep -c, but skipping files with no results grep -c "$@" |grep -v ':0$' }

#unix #UnixShell #ShellScripting #bash #ksh

Oh, didn't know about -c. I usually just pipe to wc -l I guess.

-c, -l, -h, -H, and -q are my favorite #grep flags. :D

Huh, that almost became a [Marcel Duchamp] reference. 😅

I just use -v and -E

@rl_dane

Heh, I just got to run grep grep on my shell history.
