ack

ack is a tool like grep, aimed at programmers with large trees of heterogeneous source code. ack is written purely in Perl, and takes advantage of the power of Perl's regular expressions. * Searches recursively through directories by default, while ignoring .svn, CVS and other VCS ... [More] directories. * ack ignores most of the crap you don't want to search * Lets you specify file types to search, as in --perl or --nohtml. * Color highlighting of search results. * Uses real Perl regular expressions, not a GNU subset. * ack is pure Perl, so consistent across all platforms. It even comes as a single standalone program with no module dependencies. [Less]

dnGREP

dnGREP is a new Open Source GREP utility written in .NET 2.0 (testing so far only on Windows). It was designed to provide a fast and stable regular-expression based search/replace functionality to Windows users. This utility currently supports: * Shell integration (ability to search from ... [More] explorer) * Plain text/regex search (including case-insensitive search) * Multiline search (ability to search and replace multiple lines) * Undo functionality * Preview of search results * Optional integration with text editor (like notepad++) Suggestions and requests for new features are always welcome and appreciated. Works with Windows XP and Windows Vista [Less]

Rak

A grep replacement in pure Ruby. Use Ruby regular expression syntax and get highlighted output. Automatically recurses directories and excludes .svn/ pkg/ etc. Based on the Perl tool ack by Andy Lester.

ruby-grep

The goal of this project is to illustrate how to implement a Context-Free Grammar into a compiler and the simulator of the FSM generated by the compiler. My purpose is purely didactical... I don't want to rewrite "grep"!!

hexgrep

hexgrep is a search tool for binary files, with a command line interface similar to the Unix tool grep. This project is in early development stage.
