A friend of mine has used EditPlus for over 5 years and says he never finds file by a name.

Is there no such functionality in that editor? (I find this hard to believe!)

You can. The trick is to search for 'anything' in the files and choose a filetype that matches the kind of files that you are looking for.

  • Open the Find in Files dialog box
  • Make sure that Regular expression checkbox is checked
  • Enter .* in the Find What field
  • In the File Type field enter the kind of files you're looking for. For example:
    • *.java to search for all java files
    • Comment*.* to search for all files that start with 'Comment'
