Scan all files for strings / variables using CMD.exe

How to scan all files in a directory and subdirectories for a string or variable name. Okay so I needed to generate a list of files on my PC that contain the variable $license[xxxxx]. Whilst I knew I could write a PHP script to do this, I thought it’d be much quicker to let my PC do all the work using findstr. First, let’s explain what FINDSTR is and how it works. Findstr is a windows command you can use in the Windows Command Prompt (cmd / cmd.exe) to find out if a string exists in a defined file or in this case, list off all files containing a string.

Many people have trouble getting their AdSense Pallets to blend. It never appeared as obvious to me, but after a bit of trial and error, it seems the answer to blending is simple! Firstly, there is an alternative preference to blending, which is to make ads clash instead of blend. If this is your preference then just do the opposite of my blending advice! To blend ads properly here are the basics rules: If the area around the advert placement is a light colour, you want the adsense to be... Read More →
