gret

gret (global regular expression tree) is a command line tool that searches a directory or file for a matching regex expression and displays matches in a tree structure.

To Run

Use cargo run, the first positional argument is the pattern, the second is the path to search. If you want to match multiple patterns use -e followed by the pattern.

How To Use

See the options.md file.

To Install

Run the ./add_to_path.sh script after changing the links location to somewhere on your path. Or run the commands seperately: cargo build --release And then source the correct completion file that is in the completions/ directory.

To Benchmark

Run ./benchmarks/bench at the root directory. Results can be seen in the times file in the benchmarks directory.

Then add the binary to your path and then source the script to give you proper completions. For the completions to work on next login you must source it at each login.
