"Find in files" doesn't work on Unix files

[Bart Masschelein]

Hello,

I have a VC++ project which uses files located on my Unix account
Browsing (eg. go to Definition etc) works fine, however, if I use "Fin
in Files" it does not find any single instance of the string entered.
guess? it is a Windows (find)/Unix (grep) problem, but is there also
solution to it? That would be great.

Thanks,

Bar

This looks like a bug. What does filemon say about the IDE trying
to open these files? Does it try at all? Do the calls fail?

Thanks,
