Text-Finder
Anybody know of a FREE text finder for Windows?

I don't need it to replace - just find text in a number of files (Normally asp files).

Cheers,

Dean

nope, just brute force search (using the Delphi Pos() function) -
so it's not wise to search big files.

I've made it couple of years ago for my own use in rush, so it's not
very elegant - but it was enough for me and enabled me to search
my files.

Works PC and they're funny about what we install.

Most of the time we can't download stuff but somehow SWs stuff got through.

Still not on XP (Don't think we will be for a while, if at all) so can use Explorer for now.

Cheers,

Dean
