Maybe try to think of some features that make sense for gsc specifically, since anything that's related to just normal text searching has already been done by others, and done way better than anyone who browses this forum could do. I'm not even seeing regex support and looking at the source very quickly, I don't think the gui will even be responsive while searching and searching might be quite inefficient. Nice project for sure, but, and I hate to say it, I don't really see any reason why this would be used over a normal program that does this, and is quite frankly does it a lot better. Again, thanks for your said in GSC Dump Searcher: Honestly, this project is primarily for me and my needs, but I'd still like to make it available for anyone who'd ever want to utilize it. It's also open source so they can go ahead add features and changes themselves if they desire. Whether someone wants to use this project is up to them and they're free to use other ones if it doesn't suit their tastes. To conclude, it's never a bad thing to have options lol. It's still a good idea that I'll most likely end up bringing into fruition just to see if it fits well into the idea of what this is supposed to be. It's like editing an XML, JSON, or CVS file with an IDE, and that's exactly why I started developing this project. I'd even bring up your argument that there's other programs to do that for you but they generally include a suite of other tools that you just don't need. Your function idea is actually a good one but would probably require me to write my own parser which is kind of overkill for something that's supposed to primarily search for instances of strings. Now that you've made your comment, I might just push it up the list since at least you seem to find it to be of importance. Regex is on the table but not a high priority because I personally never use it. I'd like to have a skeleton before I move onto the organs.
You're absolutely right that the GUI isn't responsive, I haven't gotten around incorporating threading and it's something I'd like to do once the basics are fleshed out because it's not like the program is doing much at the moment. It'd be great if you could list some of the programs you mentioned to be better so I can hopefully incorporate some of their aspects into this one. As I need more from the project, I'll add it. The initial version you see here is the absolute bare-minimum and will improve over time.
I made it because it's something that I personally use on a daily basis and I plan on adding all sorts of functionality. This project is in its infancy and I'm updating it regularly. It's a thousand times better than some half-assed comment and I'm glad that yours is the first I've received. First of all, thanks for spending the time to write out some well-thought criticism.
