Google today launched new search engine and index of source code entiltled: Code Search. They claim that the new code search engine will be able to find almost any code that its crawler can find. It does seem that the Google index of source code is a lot broader than other code searching sites.It goes as far as indexing content on zip and tarball files on open source sites, now thats broad.
The thing you’ll notice with Google Code Search is that you can use regular expressions in the query field when searching, more ways to refine your search. On the code searches homepage users will find a cool overview with pointers on using the service.
I for one, I am not too impressed by this, but it works so no complaints.
