Find all test_*.py files and open them in vim:
fd -g 'test_*.py' -X vim
Won't work:
fd --changed-within "2021-10-09" --exec rg -i drv
fd --changed-within "2021-10-09" | rg -i drv
Will work:
fd --changed-within "2021-10-09" -X rg -i drv
Find by date/time
fd --changed-after 2023-03-10 --changed-before 2023-03-12
fd --changed-within 24h
Find markdown files an run wc -l on them
fd -e md --exec wc -l
Copy files containing vim in name and extension txt to ziel (cmd is required because copy is part of MS Windows cmd)
fd vim -e txt -x cmd /c copy {/} d:\ziel
Find files without extension
fd "^[^.]*$" --type f
Limit search to files with extension md (markdown)
rg -t md
Search for files beginning with jobc and containing '// TODO'
rg -g 'jobc*.md' '// TODO'
patterns from file
rg -f patternfile.txt
search for title: in files ending with .md and open them in vim
rg title: --glob=*.md | vim -
search for timebox in files containing url (no need for fd)
rg timebox --glob *url*.md
search for ab or de
rg ab | de
search for ab and de
rg ab | rg de
Search over multiple lines, seems to work in many of my use cases but not always (requires further evaluation: think its the pattern part)
rg -i -U --multiline-dotall "pattern1.*pattern2.*pattern3"
TODO

For windows use ff as wrapper for fzf.
And define a shortcut like ff -a gvim to open the result from fzf in gvim.
