I'm not seeing an option on grep for fullpath in qsh so I came up with
this:
find /home/t2web/includes/##usr -exec grep -l 'abcdef' {} ';'

Leave off the trailing / on your starting path of you'll get
/home/t2web/includes/##usr//foo/bar/file.txt

YMMV, there may be a more elegant way to do it.

Thanks,
Alfred
