V-Grep

Search multiple files using reg. expressions

This program is an easy to use while feature-rich application that brings - well known in the Unix world - regular expressions power to the typical Windows users. Even in DOS you could use masks, to speed-up searching for files. These masks were later adopted for use in Windows. Masks are special types of strings that with the help of reserved characters - here it would be an asterisk and question mark - allow you to easily describe complex patterns. Sounds complicated! But it isnt - very simple expression *. txt describes every string that ends with . txt phrase. Regular expressions are using basic concept of the masks but they add even more special characters that can represent definite number of characters, optional phrases etc. You can specify expressions representing complex patterns that are difficult or impossible to find using only masks, such as: e-mail addresses, telephone numbers, IP addresses etc. In the Unix-class systems regular expressions are handled by a program called GREP (Global Regular Expression Print). This program (Visual GREP) gives you whole functionality of GREP and lots of other very useful options - all packed in a standard Windows GUI. This program allows you also to search for files even without any knowledge about regular expression, but even then its much better way to do this than by using Windows built-in research feature, mainly because of a more legible search results.
