I can think of a few, though the SearchRec is not hard to use at all, so
is very easy to knock up exactly what you need.
Anyway, take a look at these:
* DoubleCmd (Double Commander) project
* See the "Iterator Pattern" article I wrote. You can very quickly
adapt the regex iterator by feeding it SearchRec results and then
filter out the output.
* In the fpGUI "core" code there is a cross-platform file searching
class with filtering support. It is used to feed results into
fpGUI's File Open/Save dialog.
I'm sure there are many more such examples.

Graeme
