Capturing search results

Post by Paul Rooney »

Hi,

I was wondering if there was a way to pipe search results into a new file : eg find all occurances of the string "DEBUG_MSG :" and copy them to a new file. Something like grep

What you want is "Find in Files" accessed by Ctrl-F5 or Search/"Find in Files".
Enter the directory you want to start searching from and whether you want to traverse subdirectories.
If you want to search only 1 file it will aalso so it.
The results page can be saved as a file.
