I want to find where I have exported my CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH variable, so I enter:

 grep CPLUS ~

but it gives not results, if I enter:

 grep CPLUS ~/.bash_profile

it works OK, I also tried other commands but with no luck

    use grep -r CPLUS ~ to recursively search through all files in directory and its sub-directories

    @spasic thank you it worked, without -r what worked was this command: grep CPLUS ~/.*
