1. Re: Some Tools for Use With Editing & More
Bill Hunt Feb 10, 2011 11:41 AM (in response to Bill Hunt)Noel Carboni offered this utility in the PS forum. I have never used it, so cannot vouch for how well it works.
there is a handy little free tool for actually doing good, reliable searches (though perhaps with a user interface that's a big geeky). It's Stefan Kueng's grepwin tool:

If you put the right stuff in the right places in its dialog, It will find what you're searching for - quickly and every time, even if encoded in Unicode. It even tells you the things it cannot search in (for example because the file is open), so there's no way you can unknowingly miss anything. Stefan definitely knows what he's doing.
