Okay, this solves a feature I was occasionally missing for a long time: searching for several terms in files (the "Googling files" feature). I wrote a 8 line script a few weeks ago to do this, that I will gladly throw away. I'll look into the TUI too.
(I've been using ripgrep for quite some time now, how does this otherwise compare to it? would I be able to just replace rg with ug?)
- Levitating 3y agoIs it that different from using fzf? I currently use ripgrep-all (which can search into anything, video captions or pdfs) and fzf.
- bishfish 3y agougrep+ has this feature similar to ripgrep-all. For regular use, I use ugrep’s %u option with its format feature to only get one match per line same as other grep tools. Overall, I’m a happy user of ugrep. ugrep works as well as ripgrep for me. It’s VERY fast and has built-in option to search archives within archives recursively.
