Hi ports@, Here is a new port: sysutils/fd
I was a bit skeptical at first about why a find replacement was useful, but speed alone won me over. The features section from the README highlights other reasons why the tool is interesting and useful: - Intuitive syntax: fd PATTERN instead of find -iname '*PATTERN*'. - Regular expression (default) and glob-based patterns. - Very fast due to parallelized directory traversal. - Uses colors to highlight different file types (same as ls). - Supports parallel command execution - Smart case: the search is case-insensitive by default. It switches to case-sensitive if the pattern contains an uppercase character*. - Ignores hidden directories and files, by default. - Ignores patterns from your .gitignore, by default. - The command name is 50% shorter* than find :-). >From DESCR: fd is a program to find entries in your filesystem. It is a simple, fast and user-friendly alternative to find. While it does not aim to support all of find's powerful functionality, it provides sensible (opinionated) defaults for a majority of use cases. Comments? OK?
