Short : Fast CLI command to search files (+gui)
Uploader : dck@hol.gr (D. Keletsekis)
Author : dck@hol.gr (D. Keletsekis)
Type : util/cli
Version : 1.1
Requires : WB 2.0+
FSearch is a pure CLI command for Listing & Searching files.
Searching of files is fast and the template provided allows
you to accurately describe the types of files you are looking
for, thereby drastically reducing the scope of the search.
A great looking, resizable, multitasking GUI is also
provided (preview included). The gui is independent of the
command itself, so you can use it (or not) as needed.
To run the GUI you need the Gui4Cli program which you can
download from Aminet at dev/gui/Gui4Cli.lha
Fsearch has the following template :
ROOT/A/M Where to start searching from.
May be multiple root sources - with wild-cards
ex : FSearch ram: dh0:mydir#? all
List all files in all dirs in ram: and all
files in all dirs matching dh0:mydir#?
This option must be given.
All others are optional.
PAT/K (string) File pattern to match
Only files meeting this pattern will be searched
ex : FSearch ram: pat=#?.info all
List all info files in ram: or it's sub-dirs
TXT/K (string) Text to search for.
By default the search is case-insensitive.
If this option is not specified FSearch will act
like "list".
ex : FSearch ram: txt="my name" all
FROM/K (date) Only search files FROM this date and up.
Dates must be written as dd-mm-yy.
ex : FSearch ram: from=07-08-96
TO/K (date) Only search files UP to this date
MIN/N/K (number) Only search files more than MIN Kb.
ex : FSearch ram: min=100 (look for files >= 100k)
MAX/N/K (number) Only search files less than MAX Kb.
HEADER/K (string) Only search files which have this header.
The Header specification may contain wild cards.
The first 100 bytes of the file will be loaded
and checked against this Header.
ex : FSearch ram: header=FORM????ILBM#? all
will list all iff pictures in ram:
ALL/S Recursively scan sub-directories
CS=CASESENSITIVE/S
Make search case-sensitive
V=VERBOSE/S Print Line number & text of lines found.
The default is to just print the file name on the
first occurance of the TXT you're looking for.
With this option all the matches and their
context will be displayed. If the line length is
over 80 chars it will be clipped.
NOBIN/S Do not check binary files. Up to 100 bytes of the
file will be loaded and file will be skipped if
this header contains any non-ascii characters.
HL=HIGHLIGHT/S Highlight the search results
INFO/S Print file size/date/time next to it's name
No file paths are printed if this option is on.
NOPATH/S Print only the file name - not the full path.
