I have to find the following patterns in a text file
\xc2d
d\xa0
\xe7
\xc3\ufffdd
\xc3\ufffdd
\xc2\xa0
\xc3\xa7
\xa0\xa0
I start with finding \x occurrences and do this
grep "\\x" *.log | more
and nothing returns, is this query correct?
I think you’ll want to use single quotes instead of double quotes.
grep '\\x' *.log | moreYour shell is likely stripping that first backslash as part of the processing it does for strings in double quotes, which grep needs.
