Publisher's description
From APL Consultants of Houston :Make an HTML file of contexts surrounding key words and phrases excerpted from a directory structure. While search engines just return links for you to continue following, phraSEarch follows its links and constructs a meaningful document that contains every context in which your search words and phrases were found. With its interface, you can create browseable HTML pages with as much context as you want, preceding and following your search words and phrases, built from documents on your local or LAN disk drives. Each context has highlighting of any words of your choice and a link to its original document. Whether your research field is medicine, law, theology, education, genealogy, military, history, science, journalism, or home schooling -- whether your research is from e-books, professional journals, recipes, movie guides, e-reference books, hobbies, or your personal documents -- phraSEarch is your off-line browsing companion of choice for compiling and summarizing information.

Version: phraSEarch 1.7
"Very useful tool for information and context search."
Pros: With all the information on our computers, finding specific data can be an issue. Though there are several programs that can do this, most of them don't answer the bigger question. What about the context surrounding the data? That is one area in which phraSEarch shines. Not only does it display the context for what you searched, the amount of context is user-definable. Bravo!
I see two possible extensions:
1) wildcard / regexp capabilities, and 2) the ability to search multiple directories
