Thanks David,

In your initial post I misread "text files" as "text file's"... hence my
response. I'll download it and take a look at it. It still would be nice to
have a general purpose desktop app that does this, but for my most immediate
needs this might fit the bill.

Subject: RE: [Flashcoders] [OT] desktop file searching utility

I understand that, but if his specific requirement is to go through .as
files, then something like TextPad should be able to do exactly what he
needs. You can search for and replace all instances of a specific string
within folders, subfolders, specifically selected files, etc. You can even
add the .as filetype within TextPad and associate it directly to TextPad or
have it open up the default program. I mean, did you guys even look up
TextPad's capabilities before shooting down my suggestion? ActionScript
files are nothing more than text files. There's no special encoding type to
show that they are 'ActionScript' files, aside from the fact that the
compiler is hard-coded to look for the specific .as extension.
