Grep in Jed
http://jedmodes.sourceforge.net/mode/grep/last/27th of January 2004
What I really miss about Jed (my favourite editor by far) is to be able to search many files with one single simple command. Currently, I have to exit Jed every time and use grep to do the search, then enter Jed again to redo the search on the file I found out about from grep.
Anyway, now I found this jed mode file. I haven't installed it yet but will shortly. It sets out to integrate the two.
"A jed fronted to the grep command. Start a search from within jed or from the command line and display the result nicely in a jed buffer. Jump to the findings pressing Enter or with double click. Copy, move or delete files. Replace text across the grep results."
grep is a open-source powerful tool for searching text files. (More about that on this FAQ).
jed is a multipurpose text editor built in the S-Lang language. It's very fast and works very similarly to emacs.
