How to find the "accidental" string in all mxl files

find . -iname "*.mxl" -exec zipgrep "accidental" {} \; > ~/Downloads/accidental.txt

• As an aside, afterwards cat ~/Downloads/accidental.txt | grep -v '<supports' | sort | uniq | awk -F: '{print $2}' | sort | uniq is used to find the <accidental> Element in all compressed MusicXML files (.mxl).
