OT: TS.exe ( text find ) utility replacement

[Rick Lipkin]

Robb, Carlos Paco

Robb .. I downloaded your Ts.exe ( remake ) and it looks very promising .. I did notice from time to time it fails to list the filename it is scanning and the line, otherwise a worthy replacement.

Carlos .. thank you for your suggestion .. evaluating your choice as we speak

Paco .. I appreaciate you sharing your program... going to compile it this morning.

Thank you all very much !

Hi Rick,

This one isn't dos based but it might do what you need.

I use grep. It comes with BCC

Total Commander built in search feature

I always use Total Commander as my file manager

I use grep. It comes with BCC

+1.
If you are using BCC, grep is a good option. And it is also available in Unix type OSs, like Linux and OSX.

Rick,

I was not aware of the FINDSTR DOS command until someone posted it in this thread. I have been trying it out and it looks like it may be very close to your old TS.EXE.

I posted some examples of using it to search source code below. I have all that code in a batch file which exports the results into several TXT files.

------------------------------------------
The DOS program Findstr is great at locating strings in your source code. Here are some examples.

rem Find all occurrences in all source files in current directory
rem and ignore case and include line numbers
findstr /n/i/C:"index on" *.prg >indexon.txt
findstr /n/i/C:"set index to" *.prg >setindex.txt
findstr /n/i/c:":addindex" *.prg >addindex.txt
findstr /n/i/c:"=Tdata():new(,\"clients\"" *.prg >clients.txt

In the last example note that we are looking for a string containing quotes so we have to use the "escape" character, the backslash \, right before the quote marks we want in the search string. So we are actually searching for:

=TData():new(,"clients"

See this link for more info on escape syntax:

New revision , corrected the error by double clicking on the search line , showed the data to locate the result.

In my case in my Editor by double clicking on the highlighted line opens the file oEditor:Abrir(cFile) and positioned the row indicated oEditor:GoTo(nLine)
