I've never really seen PowerShell beyond minimal commands, but after seeing the parent, I definitely think it has the superior syntax of the shells. Especially for scripts.
Maybe if the "popular" shells, but http://www.nushell.sh/ is looking better and better

I wrote a bash version of this: function frg { result=`rg --ignore-case --color=always --line-number --no-heading "$@" | fzf --ansi \ --color 'hl:-1:underline,hl+:-1:underline:reverse' \ --delimiter ':' \ --preview "bat --color=always {1} --theme='Solarized (light)' --highlight-line {2}" \ --preview-window 'up,60%,border-bottom,+{2}+3/3,~3'` file="${result%%:*}" linenumber=`echo "${result}" | cut -d: -f2` if [ ! -z "…

I messed up my conda environments once when I changed my username. So many references to the old username in the conda folders. Ripgrep saved the day!

code -g "$file:$linenumber"Would be nice if ripgrep was drop in compatible with grep. I'd feel like a dick writing a shell script for other people to use and forcing them to install a new grep
If you need drop-in compatibility with grep, then use grep. :-)

I expected to like Powershell when I began working somewhere with a lot of Windows (after decades of mostly Linux). I figured on paper this sounds like it has learned many important lessons that Unix shells could learn but (at least the popular ones) didn't, it's been given a blank canvas, the principles it's working to make sense, it has good people behind it. So I even undertook to write a modest new piece of glue…
> It also just doesn't feel like a quality product. On my work Windows laptop, Powershell will sometimes not quite bother flushing after it starts, so I get the banner text and then.. That’s independent of the shell, and is I believe a bug in the terminal emulator. There is an open source Windows Terminal you can separately install and that is so much better.

This comment got me to get out my French press and manually grind some beans. It wasn't a meditative and calming as I remember, and the coffee tastes a little...dusty. I guess it's time for me to update my vimrc.
Aeropress is a direct upgrade from french press and uses way less coffee
What are the reasons for grep not being replaced/improved? This topic seems a bit old by now.
If you want to innovate in this space, why sign up for all that? Invent a better wheel, and if people like it, they'll migrate over time.
I remember using ag in the old days, and I use rg now. But there's things rg does by default that I don't like at times... so I go back to old fashioned grep.
rg is at the point where many programmers use it. I think it is on its way to becoming one of those "standard tools". It needs... another 5 years?
When POSIX has a rg standard... we'll know ripgrep "succeeded" and teargrep will soon come into existence ;)
It's fast indeed. And I can't help keeping promoting the combination with fzf :) For those who want to try it out, this is a Powershell function but the same principle applies in any shell. Does ripgrep then puts fuzzy searching in the resulting files+text on top while showing context in bat: function frg { $result = rg --ignore-case --color=always --line-number --no-heading @Args | fzf --ansi ` --color 'hl:-1:underl…
