[–] jedisct1 4y ago ↗ It's pretty old, and there are better/faster alternatives these days, such as ugrep. [–] petdance 4y ago ↗ What makes ugrep better for your use cases?
[–] c17r 4y ago ↗ Livegrep https://github.com/livegrep/livegrep is my weapon of choice these days. [–] mekster 4y ago ↗ I always wonder why I want to run something I can accomplish within an IDE through another tool.What's the advantage against running find in files from my editor? [–] c17r 4y ago ↗ If it's just searching through a single project inside an IDE, I agree with you.But I have a Livegrep instance setup to index all 1000 repos into a single search space and it's still nigh instantaneous.
