Hello,


I have used my runtime lexer and parser generating libraries to
produce a search tool:
https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/1197135/gram-grep-grep-for-the-st-century


The tool operates in 3 different modes:


- Standard regex search
- Lexer mode search
- Parser mode search


Maybe you have wanted to search for text only in strings?
Or exclude strings from your search?
Or exclude comments?
Or even search only in comments?


All of these and more are easily achievable now.


I include a simple grammar search for looking for uninitialised variables in header files.


Regards,


Ben
