Source code searching #2086

@sbcguard

Description

@sbcguard

Not really an issue but a question/idea. Currently in RDi, we use iSphere to search source code. Is there something similar to that in Code for i, or plans for something like that. I work in a lot of older COBOL programs and the like, and the source code search is often valuable in finding where a program is called from and various other quick search needs.
Thanks,
AJ
