Simple Pattern Search - Deep Dive Translations

A simple tool for pattern matching and relative search.

Simple Pattern Search is a program developed by Deep Dive Translations with the aim of looking for particular text patterns inside of multiple files. The tool supports four different kind of encodings so far: ANSI, UTF-8, UTF-16 and Shift-JIS. It has a recursive directory browsing feature that allows the user to select a single root folder and get all the files included inside of it and its sub-levels.
