just in case you haven't seen this already:

http://www.google.com/codesearch



It searches public source code for anything you want.

Also note: it will be looking _inside_ the code.

Interesting. I had thought that there was really only one "hello world"
program, or perhaps on in each possible languages. But google codesearch
found 135,000 of them!

Other minutiae:

password: 872,000 (hmmm, spoofing code)
rtfm: 36,100 (hmmm, impolite code)
goto: 592,000 (hmmm, archaic code)
void: 16,700,000 (hmmm, much ado about - nothing?)
