A Correct answer
Explanation

'grep' is the standard Unix command for searching text patterns in files. The syntax 'grep test *' searches for the string 'test' in all files in the current directory (the * wildcard matches all filenames). 'lookup', 'search', and 'dir' are not standard Unix commands for text searching within files.
