1. A computer-implementable method comprising: accessing, via a searching system, a remote file system application program interface (API), the remote file system API enabling passing of a file system path and search criteria regular expression values and receiving of search results; performing a search via a file content searching program on a mapped remote drive using the remote file system API, the mapped remote drive receiving the file system path and search criteria via the remote file system API; and returning the search results to the searching system via the remote file system API; and wherein the file content searching program comprises a global regular expression processor (grep) type program, the grep type program comprising a command line text search function; the remote file system API is recognized and loaded via a remote file system installable file system (IFS) operating system file system, the IFS operating system file system defining file operations to be used against a plurality of file system implementations; and, the grep type program utilizes the remote file system API to delegate the search to a remote file system.
