Like the "grep" functionality in the GNU Project, this program searches files for the presence of a search string. However, mfilegrep searches only mfiles. Searches can be recursive or non-recursive, and case-sensitive or non-case-sensitive, and can search for whole words or partial words. The result is returned in a cell array that contains the names of all mfiles on the specified path that contain the search string. Additionally, the user has the option of listing the text of all lines in the mfiles containing the search string.
