I'm simply looking for a way to find: aaa OR bbb OR ccc in a particular file.

Does Textpad support boolean searches or does anyone know of a boolean-equivalent? I need to search thousands of files on 8 servers for the presence of a series of 13 phrases. I don't want to use Perl but I just might if I absolutely have to.

Use "Posix" regular expression syntax:

Configure | Preferences | Editor

[X] Use POSIX regular expression syntax

Search | Find... (<F5>):

Find what: aaa|bbb|ccc

[X] Regular expression

Grrrrrrr! I just spent roughly 8 hours for DR drills on what I now know could've been done in less than 30min. Thank you very very much. ; )
