Very convenient to find a file you don't know exactly where it is or how it's called in a jungle of directories. For example, when: - Developing code. When it's that .js file? It was called my feature something somethign.js, but not sure on which on of the 30 subdirectories it is. ffind my feature - Searching for a particular funny meme. It was under Images directory, but not sure if it was a .mp4 or .gif and if it was \"dancing\" or \"DANCE\"... ffind Images/ danc See it here in action! If you have deal with Unix find , it replaces the cumbersome find . -name ' FILE PATTERN ' with ffind FILE PATTERN (plus more niceties). Main features - Search recursively on current directory by default. - Ignores hidden and source control files and directories by default, avoiding showing files you don't care. - If the FILE PATTERN is all in lowercase, the search will be case insensitive, unless a flag is set. Just write the search in lowercase to ensure maximum returns. - Will print colorized output in glamorous red (default), except on redirected output. - Can delete matched files, making very easy to clean compiled files, like .pyc or .o . Try ffind --delete pyc on your Python project Common uses: - ffind txt to return all plain text files in current tree structure. - ffind ../other dir txt to return all plain text files under dir ../other","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/jaimebuelta","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/jaimebuelta/ffind/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
