Searching your codeby inblosam (Monk) |

inblosam has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
I tried a few different searches, but couldn't turn up anything that was really helpful for what I would like to do.
I have several good size websites with ~100+ pages of code each. I use Mason and it helps to manage things and reuse code, etc. But sometimes I want to find a certain piece of code, but have no idea where to find it, and don't want to look through dozens of files to locate it. Is there some program or script or something that will index my scripts/pages and let me search, then show me the path to my file? I don't want to index my whole server, and I want it to be site specific so it would only entail the site's folder and cgi-bin. Any ideas?? I realize I could do this any number of ways myself, including some sort of grep function (I'm not so grep talented). But I want to limit it to a folder (and its subfolders)... Hopefully I am not off of the beaten path topic-wise. I want to know what other people do. Michael Jensen
