Using grep command in console I see no activity for a while. How do I know command completed?

Using console in WinSCP from the directory I want to search I'm running this command:
grep -Ril "my text string"
I see no activity for a long time and no results. How do I know the command ran and completed its search?
thx

This does not look like a WinSCP question. It seem to me as a generic question about *nix grep command.
