Hello,

why cant i get this to work in my bash script? I have multiple files with the same name but different file extension.
example
batch.prd
batch.uat
batch.dev

_filename="repo/batch"

seek=$(grep "job name_A" "$_filename*" |sort -u)

I've tried "$_filename.*" and "$_filename./*" but bash will not expand the filenames for the grep to do a once over and i prefer not writing a loop to go thru each file. Any thoughts as I'm just not sure how to expand a filename with extensions

Thanks in advance!
