Hello!

Hello!

I think my grep command isn't correct. It's taking a lot of time to do only a few millions files.

The command line looks like this:
grep -w+ -e $TEXT d:\*.dfm -d+

The intent is to look for $TEXT in every dfm file in all subdirectories in D: by using the word format instead of a regex (I do not have fancy requirements, I just really need to find occurrences of $TEXT).

Can anybody see anything wrong with that cmdline?
