PRGrep : the swiss knife for searching inside files

PRGrep is a powerful program to search strings inside files.

When you want to know if a string of characters is present in files, you can use the standard search utility of Windows but this utility give only the list of files containing the searched string. It is your job to search manually in each file to see the lines containing the string.

On Unix, the utility grep allows to see the lines found in files.

I have merged these two utilities in one : PRGrep for Windows.

PRGrep has moreover a lot of interresting functions as search inside binary or compressed files, several search and exclusion modes (text, AND, OR, regular expressions), direct edition of found files, ...

PRGrep is free of charge for personal or for professional use. However, if you appreciate this tool and want to encourage me for its development, you can make a donation.
