I likely missed some context by not bothering to read the whole thread, but why not:
grep -rliH "string" [dir]
The only bit you missed was the same suggestion from Mr McDowell, and yes it's the right (and simple) answer that I was missing!
All the other ways to work around it with find were interesting, but grep -rl was definitely the key.
I have an app on my Sailfish phone and using these text searches I've been looking for any files related to it so that I can modify the QML files.
Normally the files are /home/nemo.local/share/harbour-<appname> but they're not. So using the various search suggestions I've been searching but without success.
Can anybody suggest why they're not working and also a way to find the files?
