bat and rg I actually have already.... but now you make me waste so much time fiddling with all these ;)
fdsaves me so much time. I actually understandfindbetter than I wish I did, andfdis just so, so much easier.The advantage of both rg and fd are that they use the Perl-compatible regex syntax that almost every contemporary programming language uses. There's only one thing to learn.
That, and the use of
gitignoreand other heuristics to ignore many files by default.Plus, unlike
grep,findis just...awkward. The directories to search must be prior to any search arguments (and.is not the default, it must be specified explicitly), and using a search pattern is treated as one of many special cases requiring one of a variety of flags rather than the obvious default operation.It's a powerful DSL, but...not a convenient one by any stretch of the imagination.
