I runs well on Unix and Windows and handles the case insensitiveness required for everyday searches. Although the programme isn't as advanced or fast as 'find'+'grep' I have many satisfied users. The programme is free. You'll find it at: http://www.gbar.dtu.dk/~matlg/findgrep/ Regards Lars --------------------------------------------------------------------- Lars Gregersen Telephone no.: +45 45 25 28 08 Technical University of Denmark Fax no. : +45 45 88 22 58 Department of Chemical Engineering E-mail : lg@kt.dtu.dk Bygning 229 DK-2800 Lyngby Denmark --------------------------------------------------------------------- Homepage: http://www.gbar.dtu.dk/~matlg/ -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
