Well I was wondering if google desktop could do this. For example if you
get a plugin for google desktop that does this you might be able to.

Thx, but I would like to use regexp for searching (that google desktop
engine cannot). By the way, I found one way how one can act -
just create a new project about those files you need to search, and use
Eclipse search Ctrl+H.

But I think that is uncomfortable somehow.
Anybody knows another way?

Ilya,

you could run grep as external tool. Go to Run -> External Tools -> External
Tools... to open the External Tools configuration dialog.

Create a new "Program" configuration, specify command name, working
directory and command line options and click Run.

View the output in the console view.

If you want more comfort you'll have to write a custom external tool launch
configuration which calls grep in the background.

How about that?
