See the code in grep+.el, which does that. See option `grepp-default-regexp-fn'
and how it is used.
(In addition, if the region is active, `grep' (in grep+.el) puts quotes around
it and uses that as the search string instead of the cursor word.)

Thanks, but I would like to write it myself...
I will try to get the input from the cursor's position later. For now, I
would like the user to input the text.
So, I tried this:
(defun my-grep (pattern)
"this is my grep - still developing"
(interactive "sEnter the text to search for: ")
(grep -nH -R --include="*.cpp" --include="*.h" --include ="*.c" -e
pattern .)
)
When I type 'M-x my-grep', and input "Good", 'emacs' reports:
my-grep: Symbol's value as variable is void: -nH
I tried 'C-h f grep' and I could not realize what I am doing wrong...
All the help is much appreciated...
Thanks!!

The argument to the grep function must be a complete shell command as
a string.
(grep (concat "grep -nH -R --include=\"*.cpp\" --include=\"*.h\" --include =\"*.c\" -e " pattern ))

I pointed you to code that does something similar, to help you do it yourself.
