Text editor having a search box without max length

Question

I'm working with Adobe Dreamweaver CS5 and the search box has a max length for the query. I'm looking for a text editor having a search box without max length. Any idea?

The thing is that I have created a page from another page a few months ago. I changed a lot of lines and now, I'm trying to check if some parts are still exactly the same to simplify my code and include external php files instead.

Thanks in advance!

I think what you are looking for is "diff" it compares text line by line

If you are using windows there is WinMerge

Mac has Xcode

Linux has Meld, Kdiff3, diff
