Note that this can cause an incredibly odd error message if you
have a LOT of lists, if '*.list' expands out longer than the maximum
'argv' list on your system (which is easy to do if you have 3,000+
lists, the ".list" 3,000 times alone makes for 15K characters...

You may need to do this:

find . -name '*.list' | xargs listview | grep -i yadda yadda yadda.

Of course, the 'grep' doesn't do quite what you want because of the
way 'listview' works with multiple filenames - I have a Perl-ish
program to use instead of grep which I'll post once I've looked
it over for bogosity (for instance, it may be hardcoded to look
for only certain strings).
