Little ruby snippet to find words in files recursively
``` ruby
words = ['word1','word2']
for file in Dir['**/*'].reject {|fn| File.directory?(fn) || fn == 'find.rb' } do
File.open(file).each_line.with_index do |line, i|
words.any? { |word| if(line.include?(word)) then puts(file + ':' + i.to_s ) end }
end
end

Rebound:
module WordSearch
def self.files_for(path, *words)
files(path).each do |file, lines|
File.open(file, 'r').each_line.with_index do |line, i|
words.each do |word|
puts "#{file}:#{i}:#{word}" if line.include?(word)
end
end
end
end
def self.files(search_path='')
search_path << "**/*.*"
Dir[search_path].reject { |f| f == __FILE__ }
end
end
WordSearch.files_for('/Desktop/', 'word1', "word2")
