Delphi does come with a command line grep utility that will search sub folders 
etc.

Subject: [DUG-Offtopic] Search through files


Hi all
 
With MS's SEARCH utility you are suppose to be able to look for files
containing certain text. However, when you do a search on a file name *.PAS
and e.g. search for the text "begin" it doesn't find any file at all. The
search seems to work only on TXT and DOC files.
 
Does anybody know about this at all and has anybody perhaps an idea or
another little utility to do a search on PAS and other source files ?
 
TIA
John
