- thezilch 13y agoIf you like ack (and who doesn't???), you might like more or less `ag`: https://github.com/ggreer/the_silver_searcher https://github.com/ggreer/the_silver_searcher
- brown9-2 13y agoag is great - so much faster than Ack.
- dreen 13y agoI did notice ack is pretty slow and i may try ag but speed isnt a problem here for me i think btw, heres what ive been using up until now: alias gerp='grep -riHnT . -e' and more recently: alias gerp="find . -type f | perl -lne 'print if -T;' | xargs egrep -riHnT"
