openfts.sf.net is tool for you. It has even example scripts for

I have a lot of code -- millions of lines at this point, written

At least once a week, I want to find some code that uses a few modules,
so I have to launch a find + grep at the top of the tree and then wait
for it to finish.
I wonder if I could store our source code in a postgresql table and
then use full text searching to index. Then I hope I could run a query
where I ask for all files that use modules X, Y, and Z.
I'm looking for something sort of like the locate utility, except that
instead of building a quickly-searchable list of file names, I want to
be able to search file contents also.

TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to
choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
match
