I have been searching for a command that will return files from the current directory which contain a string in the filename. I have seen locate and find commands that can find files beginning with Find all files with name containing string EmailThis Premium lets you save unlimited bookmarks, PDF, DOCX files, PPTs and images. It also gives you a PDF copy of every page that you save. Upgrade to Premium → find $HOME -name "hello.c" -print This will search the whole $HOME (i.e. /home/username/) system for any files named "hello.c" and display their pathnames: /Users/user/Downloads/hello.c /Users/user/hello.c However, it will not match HELLO.C or HellO.C. To match is case insensitive pass the -iname option as follows: find $HOME -iname "hello.c" -print Sample outputs: /Users/user/Downloads/hello.c /Users/user/Downloads/Y/Hello.C /Users/user/Downloads/Z/HELLO.c /Users/user/hello.c Pass the -type f option to only search for files: find /dir/to/search -type f -iname "fooBar.conf.sample" -print find $HOME -type f -iname "fooBar.conf.sample" -print The -iname works either on GNU or BSD (including OS X) version find command. If your version of find command does not supports -iname, try the following syntax using grep command: find $HOME | grep -i "hello.c" find $HOME -name "*" -print | grep -i "hello.c" OR try find $HOME -name '[hH][eE][lL][lL][oO].[cC]' -print Sample outputs: /Users/user/Downloads/Z/HELLO.C /Users/user/Downloads/Z/HEllO.c /Users/user/Downloads/hello.c /Users/user/hello.c Source: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11328988/find-all-files-with-name-containing-string/11329012 Please check the attached file.
