Does find text support or search using ';'

[tuska]

... I didn't adapted anything
I have just installed the plugin and followed your example: ...

Yes, and that's probably where the problem lies.

Configuration file
Plugin configuration file is TextSearch.ini, located in the plugin folder.
If it doesn't exist, TextSearch.Sample.ini is copied to TextSearch.ini on execution.

Can you please use my customised TextSearch.ini and run the example again?

TextSearch.ini

Code: Select all

Yes, and that's probably where the problem lies.

I've investigate a bit
The problem is the "exe" files who are in charge of the search, they cannot handle (open) large files
The file in question is a few 100GiB

If that is the case, then you still have one more attempt with

• EmEditor - LARGE FILES UP TO 16 TB
• Everything 1.5 Alpha

[Deonri]

If that is the case, then you still have one more attempt with...

I've tried Everything, the same problem
A split second of the search n says no files found
Probably cannot handle large files either
I'm thinking maybe the solution should be Regex ?!

1. Which version of 'Everything'? -> Menu "Help" - "About Everything..." - (I have Everything 1.5.0.1256a (x64))
2. [✓]Index file content
   1. Which settings in 'Everything' under 'Tools' - 'Options...' - 'Indexes': Content -> 'Include only folders:'?
   2. Which settings in 'Everything' under 'Tools' - 'Options...' - 'Indexes': Content -> 'Include only files:'?
3. There are still a lot of options to consider - I hope you watched the summary about 'Everything'?
   Picture 2 - SETTINGS: For 'Everything' in Total Commander & 'Everything' shows important settings under points 1, 7 and 8.
    
4. What is your working memory in the Task Manager for 'Everything'?
   (In my case, for example, this is approx. 400 MB with a working memory utilisation of 36%).

I'm thinking maybe the solution should be Regex ?!

I don't think so.
If you can't find a file content, you won't find it with a RegEx query either.

In the meantime, I am no longer sure whether 'Everything' is the solution for your requirement (100GiB | ext:exe | content:),
but I am convinced that you will find information on this in the 'Everything' forum.

Maybe someone here in the Total Commander forum knows some advice.

A try with EmEditor would also be possible...

I don't think I can help you any further at this point (-> I am only a hobby user).

For me searching thru file of this size makes no sense regardless of the tools used.

If you are locked in quarantine, you have enough time to wait for the search results.
