BBEdit’s Search Features

One of the most powerful aspects of BBEdit is the comprehensive suite of search features:

• Multi-file Search
  • multiple sources for a multi-file search that can be a mix different types of sources:
    • folders
      • individual files
      • BBEdit Projects
      • open documents
      • previous search results
      • web sites
      • Xcode projects
    • Run multiple searches at once, without blocking the application; runs even faster on dual-core and multiprocessor computers

• Flexible “grep” style pattern-based search and replace based on PCRE

• Find Differences command – compare differences between files or the contents of folders, and apply changes; highlights differences within lines

• Informative search result browsers – view and open search matches

• Advanced file filtering for multi-file search and replace, and for Find Differences

• Quick Search window – finds what you’ve typed as you type it

• “bbfind” tool for running searches from the Unix command line

• “bbdiff” for integrating Find Differences with Unix workflows
