I'm looking to do some directory cleanup to a 300+ page web app that is 10+ year old. It contains a mix of classic .asp and .NET code and .xsl files. It is a convoluted mess of spaghetti code as you can imagine.

What I would like to find is a tool where I can enter a list of file names and have the tool search for instances of the file name within the source of a given directory and report back counts for each file. I've been using Agent Ransack to search on each file one at a time but as you can imagine it is very time consuming. Any suggestions?

Maybe not exactly what you're looking for, but Notepad++ has a "Find in Files" feature. It lets you use regex, optionally replace, filter results, and specify a directory. Hit find all, and it comes back with a list of locations of hits.
