I got frustrated about not being able to use GREP to search my EWB project files.

Grep is a tool familiar to anyone who uses Unix, and many C developers.  But Grep is usually written for 7 bit ASCII files, not the 16 bit files EWB and Windows likes to use.

When an old programmer gets frustrated, he codes a solution.

So I'm making this available to anyone who wants it.

I haven't tested a lot of features yet.  But you can use many regular expressions.  I'm using Delphi's regex code.

So searching for T.aint will find TPaint.  And TPaint;$ will find all lines ending in TPaint;  etc.

Options are: -i, -c and -l for case intensive, count and filenames only.
