Find And Replace Text command line utility. New & improved version of the well-known grep command, with advanced features such as: case-adaption of the replace string; find (& replace) in filenames, auto CVS edit. Moved to https://github.com/lionello/fart-it

A circumstantially faster, more lightweight, ripgrep-inspired alternative.

Power searching on your desktop without the pain. Perform powerful desktop searches without having to index your system using regular expressions. Graphical equivalent to find/grep. Available for Windows (JAVA) and Linux (Gnome & KDE) and easy to translate into your locale.

Search and replace operations on file content accross multiple files. Recursive operations within entire directory trees. FAR comes with support for regular expressions (regex) over multiple lines, automatic backup and various character encodings. Run grep like extractions to condense or rearrange sources, or perform bulk file renaming.

PathPicker accepts a wide range of input, output from git commands, grep results, searches, pretty much anything. After parsing the input, PathPicker presents you with a nice UI to select which files you're interested in. After that you can open them in your favorite editor or execute arbitrary commands. Facebook PathPicker is a simple command line tool that solves the perpetual problem of selecting files out of bash output. Bash is fully supported and works the best. ZSH is supported as well, but won't have a few features like alias expansion in command line mode. csh/fish/rc are supported in the latest version, but might have quirks or issues in older versions of PathPicker. Note: if your default shell and current shell is not in the same family (bash/zsh... v.s. fish/rc), you need to manually export environment variable $SHELL to your current shell.

ngrep strives to provide most of GNU grep's common features,applying them to the network layer. ngrep is a pcap-aware tool that will allow you to specify extended regular expressions to match against data payloads of packets. SUPPORT/REPORTING BUGS: please use https://github.com/jpr5/ngrep/issues Thank you!

THIS PROJECT HAS MOVED TO: https://sourceforge.net/projects/documentgrep/ This program is a GUI for the command line tool grep and pdfgrep. Pdfgrep search text in multiple PDF files and grep can serach text in multiple text files. You can use regular expressions for the search (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expression). This GUI and the command line tools work without indexing. The following options are used: -i (ignore case) and -F (fixed strings), -n (Print page number or output lines) and -H (Print the file name for each match) from the command line tool. The -r option will be done by the program itself. Performance: This GUI works well when searching in several hundreds of documents (depends on the speed of your computer and the length of the documents). Config Dir: [homedir]/.config/pdfgrepgui Available Languages: - English - German You can add your own language by editing the file [homedir]/.config/pdfgrepgui/language.set

Provide a plugabble and configurable alternative to UNIX tools like grep, awk, tail, head, cut, sort, uniq or even some perl based scripts in a Java environment. A bit like what Apache Ant means to good old make.

Java IDE, project support, build, debugger, grep.

GUI of indexed grep in Windows and Linux. A source code indexing tool, near instant code search tool and navigation. Good for small to medium size code base. It supports fuzzy matching, auto complete, and live grep for real time query. Manage different projects and switch for different projects Drag and drop of filenames to your favourite editor.

glark offers grep-like searching of text files, with very powerful, complex regular expressions (e.g., "/foo\w+/ and /bar[^\d]*baz$/ within 4 lines of each other"), as well as highlighting of matches.

Minimalist Cross-platform grep function. The grep command is a command-line tool in Unix and Unix-like systems used to search and print lines of text that match a specified pattern within one or more files. Licensed under ISC License.

Grep tool for OASIS Open Document Format (ODF) files. Search content and meta streams for regular expressions.

A lightweight toolkit for efficient processing of XML data. The tools are analagous to the UNIX command-line text processing tools sort, grep, etc. The infrastructure includes an efficient DFA-based engine for streaming evaluation of XPath expressions.

A tool which allows you to download all erotic images and videos hosted on popular image hosting sites tagged with a given tag without clicking you through the web interface. ,,java bayimg yourtag'' is enought.

Term-Highlight is a highly customizable perl-compatible regexp highlighter for wide range of terminal emulators. Term-Highlight can be used as grep-like engine or command output highlighter. You can use it just to learn perl regular expressions!

This utility will provide grep-like functionality to return multi-line (record) matches for blank-line deliminated files such as LDIF files used by LDAP. A match on any line will return all lines from the previous blank line until the following one.

CRGREP searches for matching text in databases, various document formats, archives and other difficult to access resources. A command line tool for name and content text matching in database tables, plain files, MS Office documents, PDF, archives, MP3 audio, image meta-data, scanned documents, maven dependencies and web resources. CRGREP will search resources within resources of any arbitrary combination or depth, so text within a document within a zip archive, and so on. Here you will find binary downloads and discussion (https://sourceforge.net/p/crgrep/discussion/) . The actual development and issue tracking can be found here: https://bitbucket.org/cryanfuse/crgrep

An easy to use grep console for Eclipse with a handful of useful functions.

A Python/Tk gui for find and grep. FindEmAll is, compared with other similar file search tools, fast and resource-efficient and independent from any desktop environment (no Gnome or KDE libraries required).

Fsgrep is a simple Java application which allows a user to search all files in a directory structure for lines matching a given pattern. Its functionality is a combination of the Unix find and grep utilities.

GeekGrep is a Django based social-networking system designed to get geeks connected with each other. The main feature is a database of geek codes and the ability to search them. See our project web site for a design template of the future site.
