I'll have to try some of those out. I've used fzf a little, but haven't really looked at it enough to get the full productivity gains. I've heard of rg ofc, but ripgrep_all has flown under my radar thus far, and actually sounds amazing, I've got a decently large library of pdf's I keep losing stuff in. The rest I haven't looked at, but will have to add to my list, they fill a couple voids I've been feeling. > I should roll my own blog static web site generator in Rust I suppose, because the existing ones are either slow or don't support what I need... So, not going to happen in the next year, most likely. :( It isn't powerful enough to support what you need I'm sure, but I actually did something similar a little while ago. http://a-shared-404.com/programs/ http://a-shared-404.com/programs/ It's written in Rust, with dependencies on sh and markdown. I'm thinking about adding the ability to automatically execute an (optional) shell script in each directory, so that it would be easier to do things that markdown doesn't. The code quality is atrocious (first Rust program of any size, and I'm not great at programming in the first place), but it may be useful. If you're interested in me adding that functionality, let me know, it may be the push I need to move it to the top of my pile.

The `sssss` program might have a potential. But let me give you an example: I want my every blog article to also have versions / revisions and I'd like visitors to be able to read the older versions as well as the last version. I'd also like multilingual article ability (but I think some of the engines out there can do that). The more I think of it, the more I wonder if it should be something like Ghost.org: namely backed by sqlite and not naked files. But who knows.

  Interesting. I haven't done much at all with DB's, so I can't speak as to whether or not that would be more effective. That being said, I'd be quite interested in reading your blog, whenever you are able to get it going.
