[Bug 1055766] Re: grep -R doesn't automatically search amazon

[akeane]

Salutations jcord,

I am looking forward to receiving the Atari and TRS80, you sir are a
scholar and gent and I thank you for your kind donation.

I shall network these machines together with the C-64 and make a beowulf
cluster, I will have a full 24 bits at my disposal and finally be able
to finish my hacking of the GNU wares to integrate the amazon
functionality and be able to close this important bug report once and
for all :-)

I finished hacking grep, but now all I get is:

google struct shark_t /home/noob/van_halen/*

Bug description:
  Dear "root owning" overlords,

  When using grep recursively I only get local results:

  grep -R fish_t  /home/noob/fish_game/*

  /home/noob/fish_game/fish.h: struct fish_t {
  /home/noob/fish_game/fish.c: struct fish_t eric_the_ fish;

  or worse:

  grep -R shark_t  /home/noob/fish_game/*

  /home/noob/fish_game/fish.h: struct shark_t {
  /home/noob/fish_game/fish.c: struct shark_t_t mark_sw;

  I declare this a bug for two reasons:

  1. The output is boring.
  2. The terminal has more than 2 lines!!!  It's an unefficient use of my screenspace.

  I believe the reason for this is that the grep command only searches
  locally for things I am actually looking for, I kind of expect the
  results I get from my codebase and as such it removes any sense of
  mystery or something new and exciting to spice up my dull geek
  existence. That's boring, grep -R should also search amazon, so I get
  more exciting results such as:

  This is less dull and also maximises the use of my terminal and hence
  increases my productivity.

  Please can you change the grep warez to have this feature, and just
  install it on my machine while I'm down the pub, after all you do
  "erm, have root", so it should be easy for you to do :-)

  Thanks Ubuntu devs!!!
