Introduction
The Retriever is opened with the appropriate Info > Retrieve menu commands available in most tools, or by choosing Tools > Retriever from the menu of any tool.
The Retriever is a global textual retrieve-and-replace tool, whereby regular expression filters can be used for complex retrievals and modifications. For an introduction to regular expression syntax, please refer to Regular Expressions in SNiFF+.
Queries can be constrained in terms of projects and file types, and filtered using regular expressions. Inter-file navigation is seamless, and modifications can be globally applied.
