Still about migrate to Ubuntu. I have another software that help me a lot find script that really hard to find. it is TextCrawler available only in Windows. Basically this software fill find a text in many text file in a folder. For example you have to find some strange php script that causing bug, but you don’t know or forget where you save that script in a file. Here TextCrawler come.
You just fill the location folder that you might save the file. Type your text that you want to search. And several result will show related files that have that text.
Similar software just like TextCrawler is SearchMonkey.
