Grep is one of my favorite tools to help me find something in a set of files. Since I cannot download Cygwin at work, I have to make due with what I have.
The following is a translation of grep -R "mypattern" *.cpp for Powershell.
gci C:\path\to\files\* --include *.cpp -recurse | select-string -pattern "mypattern" -caseSensitive
<sarcasm>
So much easier to remember…

Or you could have written
ls * *.cpp -r | ss mypattern -ca
for the same thing
