PRGrep 8.9

Publisher's Description:

PRGrep is a combination of the standard search tool provided with Windows and the Unix "grep" utility. It searches for a word or string in files and displays the lines containing the search data. It is very easy to use integrated into the Windows Explorer. It offers a lot of advanced capabilities such as recursive searches in sub-directories, filters on file names, various search modes (plain text, all words, one of the words, binary data), export results, direct editing of found files, search inside compressed files, and more.

Latest Changes:

• Translation in Finnish, Spanish and Romanian
• Correct management of OpenOffice documents
• Reduced display to show only the list of files containing the searched string
• Export of preferences
• Bug fixes for HTML and XML export of results when the search is performed from the root of a disk or when the search string contains a "<" or a ">"

Five stars for the idea, minus 2 for being a 6.4Mb download and inefficiently coded. I'd say PowerGREP is the most comprehensive of this type of program, but for $149 it's not even worth buying. WinGREP would have to be my recommendation. It isn't free either, but it's only $30.
