Searching entire design

Is there a command to search the ENTIRE design (all .vhd files and Megawizard functions) for a certain signal?

Thanks

    I tried the node finder but nothing pops up. It seems to be unresponsive

    Not part of Quartus, but ultra edit allows you to do exactly what you want.

    grep, it gets installed with Nios II EDS (run Nios II Command Shell, cd /cygdrive/<drive_letter>/<path>/<to>/<project>)

    Assuming you've gone through synthesis, go to View -> Utility Windows -> Node Finder and search on Design Entry(All Names).
