ack extension

[Roger Pack]

I've added [experimentally, but seems to work] an extension that wraps
the "ack" [1] command and seems to be a *very much faster* "search in
files, in

http://github.com/rogerdpack/arcadia/tree/ext-ack

It satisfied a big need for me. It wasn't too hard, either--thanks!
Anyway just pointing it out.

Great! I am excited, after years an extension not made by me!

Hi, i have this output (in windows) on arcadia when try to use ack in
files:

undefined method `+' for nil:NilClass["./ext/ae-search-in-files/ae-
search-in-files.rb:180:in `add_result'", "./ext/ack-in-files/ack-in-

I have used an ack.bat like this:
perl.exe c:/opt/msys/1.0/bin/ack.pl %*

2) we can put SearchOutput in tkcommons..

thanks

odd.
my ack.bat is
C:\dev\blade_copy\digitalarchive_trunk>cat \installs\ack.bat
@"c:\Program Files\Git\bin\perl.exe" c:\installs\bin\ack.pl %*

are you on vista?
Somehow parsing of ack's output is failing. Wonder what is going
on...I could put in something to handle it, but it would be best to
see what is going on--I wish I could recreate it--I'll probably add a
patch for it this saturday [well, kind of--one that should overcome
it--but it would still be interesting to know *why* it is bugging, if
you could help me out there].

Good idea.

Odd. I'll have to try it without @ and fix it :)

Anyway, sometimes when I "delete project" it gives me this backtrace:

Perhaps you've run into something similar?
