Developer file grep with before/after context lines, negation & hit viewer
A fast developer-focused file grep and context-line viewer for Linux, serving as an independent open-source Linux alternative to AstroGrep. Not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by AstroGrep contributors.
FEATURES • Tab 0 — Grep Search & Syntax Context Viewer: Recursively search directories (supporting real home, removable media, and host read-only system paths such as /etc and /usr) using file type masks (e.g. .py;.cpp;.js;.txt), Plain text, RegEx, Whole Word, Case Sensitive, and Negation mode (list files WITHOUT match). Inspect matching files alongside a rich line-numbered context viewer showing configurable 0 to 10 Before/After context lines, dimmed context hunks, and bright highlighted matching spans. • Tab 1 — Extension Hit Breakdown & File Reader: Interactive extension breakdown chart and table grouping matched files and total hit counts by file extension, paired with a line-jump file reader to jump directly to any matched line in full source context. • Tab 2 — Exclude Rules, Presets & Export: Configure directory and extension exclusion filters, optional PDF/Office document text search, manage saved JSON grep presets, switch between English and Vietnamese UI, and export full search results with context lines to formatted TXT or CSV reports.
