I've opened one of my files in NeoOffice and am looking for a string, the phrase 'I am writing.' I've been to some sites to get the proper syntax, and from what I can see... (5 Replies)
Hello,
I'm working on unix with grep (GNU grep) 2.5.1. I'm going through some of the newer regex syntax using Regular Expression Reference - Advanced Syntax a guide.

Which works, just highlights 'x' where ever, when ever.

findfiles - Utility to locate files containing specific content
SYNOPSIS
findfiles [switches]
DESCRIPTION
Very often when you are programming in any programming or scripting language, you want to find out how a particular function works or
whether a particular property is settable, or any of a number of other questions. In many cases, you can find the answers to your questions
by looking at the source code of the application or tool you're using. This is sometimes referred to as "code shopping," particularly when
what you really hope to find is a method that does exactly what you want to do. The PythonCard findfiles tool is designed to support you
in these efforts.
Type in a string for which to search, tell findfiles the directories (yes, you can have more than one) in which to search for files con-
taining that string, and send findfiles off to locate files with that specific content. Scroll through the list of files, each with a line
reproducing part of the located line for each occurrence in the file, find the one you think is what you are looking for, and double-click
the line. Voila! The PythonCard codeEditor tool opens and scrolls instantly to the line you've selected.
SWITCHES -p Show property editor
-m Show message watcher
-l Enable logging
-s Show shell
-m Show namespace
-d Show debug menu
REGULAR EXPRESSIONS
The findfiles utility uses classic Unix grep (regular expression) searches.
The grep utility uses a technique called regular expression matching to locate information. In regular expressions, some characters have a
special meaning. If you want to search for any of these special characters in the strings you supply in findfiles, you'll have to escape
them by preceding them with a backward slash () character.
While there are many such characters in regular expressions, the ones with which you will need to be most careful are: question mark (?),
asterisk (*), addition/concatenation operator (+), pipe or vertical bar (|), caret (^) and dollar sign ($). To search for a dollar sign in
the target directories, for example, put "$" into the search field. (Putting in a $ by itself will crash findfiles fairly reliably.)
On a Debian system, you can see the manpages for grep(1) or regex(7) for more information on grep and regular expressions.
NOTES
The findfiles utility also provides additional functionality that is not discussed in this manpage, because it is somewhat difficult to
completely describe usage of a GUI program in a text-based manpage. For more detailed usage instructions or for more information on the
PythonCard GUI framework in general, you should install the pythoncard-doc package and take a look at the various walk-throughs, tutorials
and samples included with it.
Once the pythoncard-doc package is installed, the documentation is installed to /usr/share/doc/pythoncard-doc, and is also available via
Debian's doc-base infrastructure - find it in the Devel section using dwww(1), doc-central(1) or dhelp(1).
If you would rather not install the pythoncard-doc package, you can find essentially the same information on the PythonCard website:
http://pythoncard.sourceforge.net
BUGS
Although it is considered to be stable, this is still development-level software.
Please report bugs in this or any PythonCard component to the Debian Bug Tracking system using reportbug(1).
