Another file manager, FreeCommander, does find text in Python
files.
However... It does not have Undo! Potentially risky.
Undo is an editor function.  I do not believe Windows Explore has
Undo either.

Besides Undo... editing functions like copy, paste, and move are all included in a file manager. You might not need that (Undo) safety feature... then again, some users think they do not need to keep a removable media backup copy of important files from their hard drive either.

Undo and other editing functions are part of a file manager. And Yes, Windows Explorer does include Undo.

I learn something new. In my WinXP, I found that Explorer has 'Undo Move' (good to learn actually, for when I drop a file in the wrong place), which also undoes normal delete (move to Recycle Bin) and which even 'undoes' copy by offering to move copy to recycle bin.

A file manager is too powerful to
be without Undo, unless maybe it prompts the user every time files/folders are moved or deleted.

Explorer prompts both for Recycle-move and perma-delete.

Many have complained, but for some reason the author of FreeCommander does not care about that.

So I agree, better to reconfigure Windows search to look in .py files.
