Last updated by stankovski [2] on 19. September 2011 - 06:30

dnGREP [3] is a new Open Source GREP utility written in .NET 2.0 (testing so far only on Windows).

A GREP [4] is "a program which selects lines in a file which match a given pattern". dnGREP was designed to provide a fast and stable regular-expression based search/replace functionality to Windows users.

This utility currently supports:

  • Shell integration (ability to search from explorer)
  • Plain text/regex search (including case-insensitive search)
  • Multiline search (ability to search and replace multiple lines)
  • Undo functionality
  • Preview of search results
  • Optional integration with text editor (like notepad++)

dnGREP (current version 0.9.0) can be downloaded from http://code.google.com/p/dngrep/downloads/list [5]

Suggestions and requests for new features are always welcome and appreciated.

Works with Windows XP, Windows 2000, and Windows Vista
