Running searches in order to find a specific term or even phrase, regardless of where it’s performed, can turn into a truly hectic experience, quite quickly, especially if you lack the proper tools for the job. With an emphasis on efficiency, grepWin will provide users with a centralized platform for performing advanced string searches and replacement operations, in multiple documents, simultaneously.

Right off the bat, users can start searching for their required content by simply adding the directory which contains the respective files, and the search term. It’s that simple. In order to offer flexibility and efficiency, the app supports two types of searchers.

A classic, text string search, and the Regex search. This will basically enable users to add special syntax constructs in the search term field, which can significantly narrow down the search amplitude, and consequently, yield more effective searches.

Another aspect that makes grepWin shine, is its quite abundant search tweak tools. These are all nicely located onto the same layout, and we believe that this approach is ideal, as it saves users from entering menus and performing the tweaks, and returning to the search section.

Parameters covering size, system inclusions, time and date, or specific matches, are just some of the items that users can rely on in order to attain more comprehensive search settings. Last but not least, although this is a search utility, it is worth mentioning that its replacing capabilities are just as good.

This minimalist utility provides reliable search performance, for text strings, in the event that users might be requiring to find particular terms, in multiple files, simultaneously.
