Good Search tool
-
Can anyone recommend a good tool for searching strings in the source files? I don't want to use Visual Studio IDE or Windows Explorer search options. The tool (either GUI or command line) should be fast enough to search in the files (.h/.cpp/.asp./.cs/.js) for a given string.( ex: all occurrences of the string...) TIA

Ever tried a windows port of grep? grep in conjunction with find and xargs is my favorite on Unix. I know the Cygwin distribution have these tools. But maybe installing Cygwin is a bit too much just to search for strings. :~ (At least I didn't suggest installing a Unix-like operating system :rolleyes:) -- I am of The Clan of Xymox.

We are doing a last round of beta tests for Version 1.1, and you can download and try this free, fully-functional beta here. This latest version allows you to add HPS Search to the Explorer right-click menu (you can also run HPS Search standalone, or from the command line), and supports four types of searches, including regular expressions. Use the following name/key: beta user 6F2E-38BE-616D-887D-CABF-6656-4297-7EEE-0D56-DF96-FB46-1116-00C7

It isn't better than Vs.Net search or Windows search, so I don't know why you should use it :~ It is wtritten in Pascal (for Win16) :-D User interface is in czech, but i think you can understand it... http://www.eeeksoft.net/tomas/upload/ffwin.exe[^]

You can also print the results, and copy them to the clipboard (via right-click menu). Once you have a list of results, you can double-click on a line item to open the file in your editor. See Options | Preferences | Editor. If you have some directories that you frequently search, you can set them up as Speed Folders - go to Options | Preferences | Speed Folders.
