	While Windows cmd.exe is rather limited (I think my TRSDOS 6 machine
had a more powerful batch language, ignoring the regular command line
[it had a basic debugger that included the ability to do pure sector I/O
on the floppy drives -- including commands to write the directory
sectors which used a different sector type mark]) -- PowerShell has been
available as a download on WinXP and standard on Win7 [PS 3 is a
download for Win7, stock on real Win8].

	While I'm not fluent in it, there are some commands I've gotten
rather engrained...

get-childitem -recurse -filter "*.ad*" | select-string -pattern "with"

finds all the Ada (GNAT convention .ads/.adb) files containing "with"
statements. And pattern probably is a regex so I could fine tune it to
just the package withs by using a start of line marker...
