E.g. when wondering if a spell is linked somewhere to something, it also Scans all sql files etc so

also it’s much faster if you git grep for a function name than asking visualstudio to find all uses at least on my system

My VS is much faster than a grep through files (it keeps a database for fast text searches, so it better be faster)
Alternatively, github code search works nice too
