How do I "ls -R | cat | grep print" ?
Hi friends! 🤓 I am on a gnulinux and trying to list all files in the active directory and it's subdirectories. I then want to pipe the output to "cat". I want to pipe the output from cat into grep.
Please help! 😅

It's valuable to learn how to do an inline loop
ls | while read A; do cat $A | grep print; done
This will read each line of ls into variable A, then it'll get and grep each one.
thank you
