$ grep '"metro"' *.c

"grep" is the unix-command to search a number of text-files for a given
pattern.
i'm using both kind of quotes to search for a string literal containing
the double-quotes (<<"metro">>), as I know that each class has to be
registered with it's name, which means that the C-string "metro" has to
occur somewhere in the text.

part of the filename is obvious (e.g. "time" relates to things (e.g.
objects) that deal with - well - time, like [metro]).
there's a short explanation about the non-obvious part ("x_") in
CHANGELOG.txt.
