Multiple string search

Post by Aneesh »

Hi,

I have a folder that has around 200 files. I need to search around 100 strings in all these files.

Is it possible to do the "find in files" functionality for multiple strings at one go?

Thanks and Regards,
Aneesh

Find what: String1|String2|String3|...|String100

[X] Regular expression
This assumes you are using Posix regular expression syntax:
Configure | Preferences | Editor

[X] Use POSIX regular expression syntax
