Searching for multiple texts with 'Google like' syntax

Post by *Tonny »

Often I would like to be able to use Alt+F7 to search many files for the existence of two or more words. Like "Google AND API".
Or for the existence of one or more words. Like "Google OR API".
The search syntax for Regular Expressions is not so user friendly. Google Search formatting syntax is much more easy to understand.
The NOT operator is already implemented in TC.

FYI: You may search like this in my Plugin: QuickSearch eXtended

It will only work in the Quicksearch, but you may search subdirectories as well if you use the branch view first.
