it is often useful to locate the lines in a file that contain a word or string of characters.
lets say i have a file called myusers and i want to look for a user called lorain45. to find this user in this file, i would run this command on the linux shell to do that:
grep lorain45 myusers
the above command will display all the lines that are found with lorain45 in the myusers file
pretty easy huh!
hope this helped.
