Hi,
This is based on a bash script I've made a while ago (see [1]) I've slightly updated it, but the idea is still the same. I search strings in a file with some variation on the file name (2 inverted chars, 1 missing char or 1 modified char).
The output is horrible, and a lot of filtering should be done. It is much like noise, with MANY false positives. But I manage to dig some interesting stuff out of it.
If interested in the updated script, just ask, but except the concept itself, I'm not sure than anything else worth anything and is should be rewritten from scratch.
The update includes some tweaks in order to search into Kconfig files instead.
