The output will be piped into the `grep` command, which will search for all files with the `.txt` extension. After the search is complete, you must redirect to a file "new" the following string "Search complete".

If the touch command succeeds, the `chmod` command will run and change the permissions of "newfile.txt" to allow the owner to read, write, and execute the file, and allow everyone else to read and execute the file. + +> You have to use Man or Google to know more about commands flags, in order to solve this exercise! +> Google and Man will be your friends!
