- This utility is used for finding files and contents of files.
- It searches recusively into the specified directory for the
- given filename. You can also specify a filetype you are looking
- for. Searching for contents can be case-sensitive or case-
- insensitive. This program is most useful when using with an
- editor which support throwback.
-
-
- Using the program:
- To open the search dialog click on the FileFind icon on the
- iconbar. A window with the following items appears:
-
- Directory: Here you can type the directory name where the search
- starts. Alternatively you can drag a directory or
- application to the window.
- Filename: This is the filename to search for.
- Wildcards used are: ? for single characters,
- * for multiple characters at end of
- filename
-
- Options:
- Ignore case: If this radio button is ticked the contents will be
- treated as case-insensitive.
- Throwback: This radio-button is only available if throwback is
- available. You have to start DDE before starting
- FileFind to enable this button.
- Filetype: Only files with the given filetype will mach the
- search. Filetypes must be specified like FF8 or &FF8.
- (This will be enhanced in future versions)
- Contents: The contents to search for. A ? can be used as a
- wildcard for a single character.
-
- Start: Click this button to start the search.
- This button will be greyed out if a search is processing.
- Stop : While the search is processing this button stops the search.
- This button will be greyed out if not search is processing.
-
- The status line above the search-results pane shows the current
- directory. If no search is processing "idle" is shown here.
