how to find files that contain a particular string

I need to search recursively through a hard drive to find files that contain a particular string.
maybe grep -r "findme" * type equivalent.
This is workbench 3.1.
I really can't remember how I used to do this!@#?
Thanks

Thanks for the posts.
I remember the AmigaOS search now. Yeah it was horribly slow.
Thanks for the aminet recommendation.
