Nisus 3.0 is out, just in time for MacWorld Boston. GREP combined with Nisus 3.0's noncontiguous selection make a powerful searching tool even more powerful. Nisus now has a "Find All" command that will noncontiguously select all of the matching patterns. You can then apply a second GREP pattern to the noncontiguous selections with the "Find In Selection" command. As always, Nisus' GREP allows you to search and replace with any combination of character attributes; i.e. font/size/style/user style/color. Nisus' GREP is fast, and searches through open and unopened files. Nisus 3.0 demo disk should be out in 1 week. I think they are still free, so get one and run Nisus 3.0 through its paces.
