SOMA TEXT SEARCH TOOL
About
Since I started exploring and tweaking with all the SOMA files, there have been a number of times when I've wanted to find exactly where and how a particular function was used, or in which map I could find a certain entity. This led me to create a simple little console tool to let me quickly look for a given text tag. Over time, it proved so useful to me that I went ahead and converted it into a full-on application.
