Search Results for "common files"

ack2 is a programmer-centric search tool written in Perl that serves as a smarter, faster alternative to grep for source trees. It defaults to searching only relevant files while skipping build artifacts, VCS directories, minified bundles, and other noise, which dramatically reduces false hits. Filetype filtering is first-class: you can target languages by name (--perl, --python, --js) or define your own groups, and ack maps common extensions automatically. Results are colorized with context options, PCRE regular expressions are supported, and output is tuned for quick scanning across many files. ...

...Possibly you need to verify whether a particular resource is present in an ear or you want to know part of a file name but don't know which zip/jar on your hard disk contains that class file. zfind solves this problem. zfind is very fast and it works on most common archive/compress files. Apart from GUI and command line, it also provides API support which let's you use it in your java code as a 3rd party library. Thanks for using, and if you find any bug, do post a ticket or discussion topic. I can't fix anything if I don't know the problem :) **Check Wiki for USAGE details

Looks at file names in a directory and finds common parts in them trying to search similar and repeated ones. Useful when you have multiple files which differ in checksum and somehow in names. You can collect them and make a decision afterwards.
