ack search recursively by default
D/l ack from http://betterthangrep.com/
Say you have a directory structure like "foo/, foo/data/, bar/, bar/data/". If you just want to ignore 'bar/data' and you use "ack --ignore-dir=data pattern" it will ignore both foo/data and bar/data and 'ignore-data=bar/data' etc won't work.
This searches through all CSS files in the current directory and sub-directories, matches the content between "url(...)", and prints a list of all the URLs. If you prefer to see the file the URL came from, remove the -h and --nogroup params. Show Sample Output
The 'sample output' shows the file(s) found and the line at which '' was found (for the example I used the 'string'.) Show Sample Output
