Huihong launched codase today!

Rather than treating code as text, Codase understands programming languages, and treats code as code, the way it’s supposed to be. It provides the most accurate and detailed search results with fine granuity levels of contols. With Codase, one can search functions, classes, strings, constants, macros, comments and other programming language constructs.

Codase can do free form text searches AND makes it easy to search just method names or class names. The results are also pretty-printed(formatting and colors).
