Blitz Search

Blitz Search is an external Tool that provides a dialogue for search much the same as JetBrains IDE's.

Blitz Search is Now 100% free and open sourced ( See https://github.com/natestah/blitzSearch/ )

The query format is words on a line based instead of literal by default, though a literal option is available.

Blitz Search is both Fast and Readable:

Words on a line query is default

Using Modern C# as an example for a search that's hard with traditional search

    var myListOfVegetables = new List<string>();
    List<string> myListOfVegetables = new();
    List<string> myListOfVegetables = new List<string>();

With Blitz Search the "vegetables new list" matches all of things, where with traditional Literal search or Regular Expression, this can be hard to do.

Configurable Sets of Paths, with Icons to boldly Show what scopes you are looking at ( click image for example ).
