How do I 39grep -c39 and avoid printing files with zero 39039 count

Questions

The command grep -c blah * lists all the files, like below.

 % grep -c jill *
 file1:1
 file2:0
 file3:0
 file4:0
 file5:0
 file6:1
 % 

What I want is:

 % grep -c jill * | grep -v  :0 
 file1:1
 file6:1
 % 

Instead of piping and grep ing the output like above, is there a flag to suppress listing files with 0 counts?

Just use awk. e.g. with GNU awk for ENDFILE:

awk  /jill/{c++} ENDFILE{if (c) print FILENAME":"c; c=0}  *
