Dunno if this helps, but if the string concerned is a function/procedure name you could run `etags' on that directory, so it will generate a TAGS file containing xrefs of these. You could then use Emacs or Vim to browser through the code, and when your point's on a func you can do `M-.' under emacs to get to the func's def. Another app that's GUI-ish is regexxer, which I think is found in Gnome 2. -- ZAK B.
