How do you organize your papers or textbooks? Have you tried setting up DocFetcher?.For those I use DocFetcher, a quirky and intermittently updated Java app that indexes file contents and provides rudimentary relevance searching along with regex. Fast File Finder for Windows is a tool for quickly finding files by name There are great CLI tools already in this thread, but for some of my side-gig work I'm searching large piles of PDFs, docs formats, and ePubs with a GUI word processor open and need to reference the source by page/graf number.

Tool to search contents of Word files Try DocFetcher, Anytxt Desktop Search or desktop search engines.
