    I am using an AIX machine and I frequently issue the following command to search for a word in all the files under the corrent directory:

    find . -name "*" -exec grep -l "xyz" {} \;

    However, I frequently get the following error message:

    grep: 0652-226 Maximum line length of 2048 exceeded.

    Can anybody tell me how to cure it?
    thank you in advance.
    • please try this... -guest:John; 2000-10-5 {49} (#9997@0)
      find . -name "*" -exec \grep -l "xyz" {} \;
      • What's the difference? -jabber(jabber); 2000-10-7 {68} (#10150@0)
        John, I tried your command and it turned out to be the same as mine.
    • It's a limit of AIX. you can try to search only ascii by narrow your search conditions. please check the file command and use it with find command. -peterlf(fromZtoA); 2000-10-7 (#10153@0)

        In fact, I have avoided the issue by using "file manager" in the Hummingbird Exceed. I found that this software can help very much those who are no experts in Unix system.
