# Get Matching Filenames As Output From Grep
|
||||
|
||||
Standard use of the [`grep`
|
||||
command](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/grep.1.html) outputs the lines
|
||||
that match the specified pattern. You can instead output just the names of
|
||||
the files where those matches occur. To do this, include the `-l` flag.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ grep -Rl hashrocket .
|
||||
./elixir/run-exunit-tests-in-a-deterministic-order.md
|
||||
./git/show-file-diffs-when-viewing-git-log.md
|
||||
./git/single-key-presses-in-interactive-mode.md
|
||||
./internet/enable-keyboard-shortcuts-in-gmail.md
|
||||
...
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This recursive grep finds all the files where `hashrocket` appears. It only
|
||||
looks for the first match in a file, so each file will only be listed once
|
||||
even if there may have been multiple matches.
|
||||
|
||||
See `man grep` for more details.
