Not sure what Digital Librarian let you do, but what's wrong with
BBEdit searching through all source files?
ugh... I don't think that 'grep' is a comparison to what DL did.
it allowed you to pre-index all the source (as well as
documentation) and so you could search these things very quickly, it
would bring up the results ranked, and allow you to view many different
types of documents (or launch the appropriate app for them)
The other nice thing about DL was that you were able to group the
sets of documentation together and select to search whatever set (or
sets) that you wanted to at the time.
Omni has (had?) OmniLibrarian for OS X.. and there is one other
company that has written something similar.

just looked again at Montage Librarian (the URL above).. this looks
quite useful.
