TextFindIt
June 30, 2009
A happy quack to the reader who alerted me to Carlos Raposo’s Microsoft Windows Dot Net 3.5 search application. If you are one of the many Windows users who need to search for a text string in a folder, you may want to look at TextFindIT, Version 1.5. This is a one trick search pony. The program can search for a specific text string inside of the files in a folder. The software can find a text string or keywords inside a folder or sub folder, including non text files.
The Beyond Search geese are calling your attention to the fertility of those frustrated with existing search tools. You can snag a copy of the program from CRWLD.com. (Oh, the goslings test this type of software on machines not connected to anything and which are designed for lab experiments. You may want to follow the same method.) The source code is available and the software has been released under the creative commons license.
