A better find. Not really, but easier to use for simple things.

.. image:: https://secure.travis-ci.org/humanfromearth/fnd.png?branch=master
.. note: This was just an experiment. It's much slower than the unix find command.
A golang implementation of the popular find unix utility.
The main reason I coded this is because I find myself writing this a lot::
find -iname "*x*"
Instead I want to write::
fnd x
That's the whole philosophy really.
.. note: This is not a 1:1 implementation of find and I don't plan to make one.

go get -u github.com/xarg/fnd
fnd
::
$ ls .
dir1
$ fnd # just list the directory
./dir1
$ touch dir1/y; touch ./dir1/2; touch ./dir1/x2 #create a few example files
$ fnd y
./dir1/y
$ fnd 2 # matches *2*
./dir1/2
./dir1/x2
$ mkdir -p dir2/y
$ fnd y ./dir1 # search just in ./dir1
./dir1/y
fnd -e
::
$ fnd -e x$ # ends with x
$ fnd -e ^x # starts with x
./dir1/x2
$ fnd -e y$ ./dir2 #search regexp in a directory
./dir2/y
If you want to play with it
