Yes, and sorry, that's not specifically related to ripgrep. About a year ago I tried to compile a few rust tools and a bunch of them just straight up didn't work at all because they made assumptions that are only valid for debian/ubuntu based distros.
I'm glad people are enjoying rust, and sure, memory safety is nice. Fun and comfort are even better, though, so I'll stick to C, Lua and Go for my personal projects.
- feanaro 7y agoYeah, I was just surprised since I specifically found Rust tools to generally both fun and comfortable due to having (what I consider) excellent UX.
- feanaro 7y agoHere is for instance a Rust tool that I just stumbled upon that seems to have an exemplary UX and adherence to Unix principles while packing a lot of features which I would personally call "fun". https://github.com/sharkdp/pastel https://github.com/sharkdp/pastel
- Corrado 7y agoWow, that's a tool that I didn't know I needed until now. Being a back-end engineer I don't often deal with color information, but every once in a while I have to build a web page or tweak some CSS and it always a pain for me to remember color hex values. This tool should make this much easier. As a bonus, it gives you similar colors and can generate random or distinct color pallets.
