lozgrep

Simple grep and find command line tool written in Rust.

• The complied executable is in the main branch.
• Have not tested it on Windows, only Linux.

Options:

--help -h Prints the help menu.
--version -ver Prints the current version.
--verbose -v Prints output statements while the process is running.
--query -q The term you are searching for follows this option.
--path -p The path you are searching follows this option.
--simple-grep -sg Searches the contents of a file.
--simple-find -sf Searches for a file or directory name.

Syntax rules:

There is no default mode, the options have to be sprecified.
The options can come in any order.
The long option (--) or short option (-) can be used interchangeably.

Examples:

lozgrep -sg -p /home/user/file -q wordiamlookingfor
lozgrep --help -ver --query filename --simple-find -p /root

Escape character rules:

The escape character is: /
The escape character can only be used on the value you want to query.

Escape character examples:

If you need to query for phrase that happens to also be an option
lozgrep -sg -q /--help -p /home/user/file
The escape character is needed in this example because without it lozgrep will read --help as an option and not an item to look for.
Therefore if you need to query for / you need to escape it, otherwise it will be stripped and the query will be empty.
lozgrep -sg -q // -p /home/user/file
