minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish1•10 months agoN++ can search for a string in a directory full of files, that’s what I use it for.

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish2•10 months 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
