Can you give more information? What directory, and what log files?
What are you searching for?
Identifying the particular files is likely to be the biggest problem if they
don't have a particular naming convention.
To search all text files you might use the "file" command to identify
whether they're simple ASCII files, or executables or whatever. Bear in
mind that sometimes a log file may show up as "Commands" or something like
that.

Performed on log files (NOT based on the file extension). 2. The text files must be automatically identified. 3. To be recursively performed on all files within a directory. 4. Output a report in another text file 5. Need to extract some numeric values on the basis of search string Please provide me the script or command to perform the desired action. I suppose the combination of find and grep should do the requisite.
