• Using your text editor font for the search results no longer suffers a resource leak (thanks, Mark)
• Index optimization now never happens when you’re using your PC, but instead waits until there’s been no mouse or keyboard activity for at least five minutes (thanks, Anton)
• The Verbosity slider is now effectively unlimited, allowing your search results to take up the full width of the screen (thanks, Stoney and Pierre-Olivier)
• In Visual Studio 2010, hitting the Alt+= hotkey now puts the focus into the search box even if the Entrian Source Search window wasn’t previously visible (thanks, Christian).

As always, there’s a 30-individual-day trial for new users, and the upgrade is free for existing users.

You can download this latest release from the Download page.

You can download Entrian Source Search 1.3.13 from the usual Download page.

• The hit count and search time (“120 hits in 23 files, 0.11 seconds”) would sometimes fail to update after you hit Search.
• There was a resource leak that would (after many days of use!) cause Visual Studio to run out of GDI resources and start to suffer painting glitches.

Download Entrian Source Search 1.3.12 from the Download page.

• You can use your text editor font for the search results, rather than being stuck with Microsoft Sans Serif (thanks, Mark)
• You can force a refresh of all files in the index (rather than just the changed files)
• You can choose how to interpret 8-bit source files that have no UTF-8 BOM (thanks, Alexei).

As always, there’s a 30-individual-day trial for new users, and the upgrade is free for existing users.

You can download Entrian Source Search 1.3.11 from the Download page.

• Very occasionally, Source Search could throw an ArgumentOutOfRangeException when you hit Search.  Now fixed.
• When you try to view a search hit in a non-existent file (for instance because you’ve deleted a huge pile of files and the index hasn’t caught up yet), the error is reported properly, rather than giving a cryptic “Value does not fall within the expected range” message (thanks, Joe).
• When showing a search hit in a .sql file, Visual Studio no longer occasionally shows an error message when there was no error (thanks, Stoney).

You can download 1.3.10 from the usual place.

Exclusion patterns are now case insensitive (thanks, Ike).

You can download 1.3.9 from the usual place.

• When first running a non-English Visual Studio 2008 after installing Source Search (thanks, Jean-Michel).
• When triggering a search with the Project Properties window open (due to a known bug in Visual Studio) (thanks, Stoney).
• After typing extra spaces before or after your index root directory paths (thanks, Tom).

You can download 1.3.8 from the usual place.

Download from the usual place.

• There’s a new hotkey Shift+Alt+= which activates the Source Search window without doing a search.
• A wildcard search that returns no hits now correctly says “No hits” rather than giving the misleading message “Please enter a search term as well as a filter”.

Download from the usual place.

Sorting the results list by Folder name, Filename or Extension now only takes one click, not two (thanks, Dan):

Update: Many thanks to Anton for spotting a bug in file:. filtering, which could make Source Search crash if you mistyped it as file: – that’s why we’re now at 1.3.5 (blush).

The upgrade is – as always – free for licensed users, and there’s a free 30-individual-day trial for everybody else. Download from the usual place.
