cat of pre-selected files

[biker007_fr]

Hi,

I'd like to mix 2 commands but I don't know how to do this...
$> locate mysql
-> to find all files matching with "mysql"
and
$> cat (of the files above) | grep datadir
-> to show the files that contain "datadir" among the files above

It might be a pipe but I don't know where to put it...

Thanks

How about:

locate mysql | grep datadir

no, what I would like to do is :
to find all files which file path or name contain "mysql" and file contain the "datadir" string inside.

N.B: You gave me the way to find all files which contain "mysql" and "datadir" in their file path or name.

for i in $(locate mysql) ; do grep -H "datadir" ; done

The "-H" option is to specify the file name you are searching inside
