R/Sir,
There are no personal issues to comment on.
Yes, I already got suggestion to use grep in first reply and kindly note, I have already marked this thread as solved. But if someone helps you, you should be thankful and appreciate, thats why i have replied to post#12 by Knudfl..no personal hits.
Funny, you've not thanked suicidaleggroll nor myself. Seems the only person you thanked was the one who handed you an exact command, and the folks who think you should learn, research, and do things yourself didn't.
Please refer post#10, I have thanked to suicidaleggroll in post#10, he suggested me for ubuntu only and for windows I myself found "Power Grep" as good one and using it so, marked that thread as solved before.
Sorry, it's not at all personal targetting as you are considering it too personally.
Thanks to you for reminding me, one should learn, research and do things by own.
