Find in Files Options

Is there a convenient way to do the equivalent of Find in Files, but restrict the scope to selected files, the files in a project, the files in a group of projects, the files in a workspace, etc? By convenient, I mean without having to look up and type the names of all the files.
I know that would be useful to me.

There is nothing in Zeus itself to do this, but in might be possible script some sort of file searching macro
The
Find in Files dialog is just a wrapper for the
xfgrep.exe tool and it is possible to run executables from a macro and have it capture the output.
Also the
macro_tag method can return the current project and workspace file details. So it would also be possible to have the macro parse these files for the file names and then have it run the xfgrep tool.
