Nope, I haven't heard of that particular one (and I tried it, pretty sweet),
but I have heard of a few other ones, such as koders [2], Programming
Langauge Research Engine [3] and even Google's [4] Code Search [5].

Now, Programming Language Research Engine [6] is based upon Google Co-op [7],
which allows you to make a highly targetted search engine—I wonder how many
of the other source code engines are based upon that?
