But Microsoft actually has such text searcher in the command line :
Code:
findstr /s /i /m "string" *
Now he tells me! I wish I had known that earlier, it would have saved a lot of work. (Don't forget to add ' >> results.txt' - without the quotes - to the findstr line shown above, to save the results obtained.)

However...
Since I *have* now completed my alternative, which is simpler to use (Windows interface), allows extra options and runs faster, I might as well leave 'BigSearch' publicly available to those who want it.

Out of curiosity, I checked the output from the Microsoft version on the SH3/NYGM combination. Both gave identical file hits (allowing for the fact that the Microsoft version has no option to disable the searching of unnecessary tga files), so well done Microsoft!
