I rewrote several screen messages and converted a message to

new version Bulldog Finder 3.7

I put the windows Share folder on the list of places to search.

It works with YASSM and Barry's method of connecting to a Share folder.

Note that searching in /root also searches the Windows Share folder as well.

version 3.8

-added Italian and German translations

Bulldog finder 3.4 OB Precise 14.07.26
My opinion : bulldog finder cannot replace Pfind, as it was done in some Puppies.

I'm working on a 'Search for text' feature.
User will be able to search through the list of files for an expression.
Seems to working fine now.
I'll post after XMAS when I've given it a good testing.
I should check if it supports foreign characters

Instructions: 'Search for text' button

First determine extension such as .htm

Put '.htm' in search box to obtain the list of files.

Next click 'Search for text' button. Enter the expression in box.
You can change the name of the output file as well and click 'Proceed'. You may
have to wait say 15 sec if you have a large number of files (hundreds) to examine.

You will get an orange warning screen after the search.

The output file will be found in /root. Open it with texteditor and you will
find the filenames and the line numbers where the text was found.
The line of text will be shown as well.
