It's not counterintuitive. It's an extension to `grep', but it uses find to find files recursively. Once you're used to M-x grep RET, using M-x grep-find RET comes naturally. > However, I see no merit for adding the alias you suggest here. What > would the logic behind it be? It does the same thing as `grep-find', but presents the results differently. I often find myself typing "M-x g r e p TAB" then having to erase the command and begin with "f i n d -" to use `find-grep-dired', because what I want to do is use grep, not use find. -- Romain Francoise | I've become someone else's it's a miracle -- http://orebokech.com/ | nightmare...
