I made a few bug fixes to Tim Charron's "GREP for Windows". These bugs were related to the subdirectory searching option (-S).
This is what Tim Charron's "Grep for Windows" webpage has to say about Grep:
GREP is a well known tool in the unix environment. There are several ports available that I came across for Windows. However, NONE of them allowed me to search through subdirectories (this functionality is easy on unix using the shell's file manipulation tools). I modified GNU grep 2.0 to allow searching of subdirectories.
To search subdirectories, do something like this:
grep -S "searchtext" *.txt
grep -S "searchtext" \personal\files\*.txt
grep -S searchtext C:\*.*

I found some old programs I wrote a long time ago: CleanPrettyPark and DIZ2EXE. These days DIZ2EXE is probably a lot more interesting than CleanPrettyPark, which is a program that cleaned up some old computer virus called "Pretty Park". DIZ2EXE takes a small text file as an input and creates a self-sufficient program that will nicely display the text when run.
Here is where you can read about and download these programs:
