Hello all,
today I was searching an old sketch, so I wrote a search sketch I want to share.
It searches a directory and all subfolders recursively:
-
you can alter certain values.
-
It does only check the file name not the content
-
At the moment it searches: Lissajous, non-case-sensitive, recursively, only .pde-files
Chrisir
// user selects folder, all sub-folders are searched
//**************************************************************
// alter these values:
String searchPhrase="Lissajous"; // search this
boolean ALL_UPPER_CASE = true; // not case-sensitive
boolean CHECK_ONLY_FILES_CONTAINING = true; // we can search for a certain file type only e.g. ".pde"
String ALLOWED_ENDING = ".pde"; // e.g. ".pde" when CHECK_ONLY_FILES_CONTAINING = true
boolean SEARCH_RECURSIVE=true; // search sub-folders
//**************************************************************
