minus-squarethecrotch@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoN++ can search for a string in a directory full of files, that’s what I use it for. Also helpful for showing unprintable characters like linefeeds or changing bit order mode, I’m not sure vs code can do any of that. For writing code, though, I do use vs code
minus-square9point6@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 year agoIIRC you can do both of those with VSCode, I think even without any extensions too! The search sidebar has include and exclude fields for directories to search in. For showing unprintable characters, I think it’s split into two settings: one for whitespace one for control characters like null and bell
