NAME

       sagasu - GNOME tool to find strings in multiple files

SYNOPSIS

       sagasu [string [dir]]

DESCRIPTION

       sagasu  is  a GNOME tool to find strings in a set of files.  The user specifies the search
       directory and the set of files  to  be  searched.   Double-clicking  on  a  search  result
       launches a user command that can for example load the file in an editor at the appropriate
       line.   The  search  can  recurse  into  subdirectories  and  can  optionally  ignore  CVS
       directories.

       Two  optional  command-line arguments can be given: the first is the initial search string
       and the second is the directory whose files will be searched.  If  only  one  argument  is
       given,  it  is  taken  as  the  search  string.   No  search  is actually started, but the
       appropriate fields are initialized.  Any subsequent arguments are ignored.

       More documentation is available through the application's Help menu.

BUGS

       The  files to be searches are still assumed to be in Latin-1, not in UTF-8.  The same goes
       for the command-line  arguments  and  the  terminal  to  which  Sagasu  is  connected,  if
       applicable.

HISTORY

       Sagasu is a Japanese word that means "to search."
