INTRODUCTION
Thanks for downloading Windows Grep, and taking the time to evaluate
it.
Windows Grep is a text search utility modelled on the UNIX utility of
the same name. It is particularly useful as a programmer's tool for
searching program source files for specific variables or function
calls. This version also searches any type of binary file, such as
word-processor, database and spreadsheet files.
The Windows help file gives detailed information about using it.

To install Windows Grep, simply put the files WGREP.EXE, GREP.DLL,
WGREP.HLP and GREPFEXT.DLL in any convenient directory, and CTL3D.DLL
into your windows system directory (usually c:\windows\system). You
may already have a version of this DLL installed. The one shipped in

If Windows cannot find the DLLs when Windows Grep is run, make sure
they are in a directory on your path, and try again.

Windows Grep is a shareware program, and is provided at no charge to

same time to provide incentive for programmers to continue to develop
new products.

after the trial period of 30 days, you must make a registration
payment of UK10 pounds or US$20 to Huw Millington, 71 Woodbury Avenue,

at any one time. Site Licence arrangements may be made by contacting
Huw Millington.
