Searchy

A lightning fast searching tool written in bash for linux, with a CLI & GUI interface. This program can take long to search if you have another big partition/drive mounted, but it isn't as slow as before. This is case-insensitive.

Dependencies for CLI version

  • Unix-like operating system
  • Bash/zsh shell

Dependencies for GUI version

  • Unix-like operating system
  • Bash/zsh shell
  • Python 3, tkinter

A bit more info

This tool first asks what you want to search for, then searches the entire / directory for the file you're looking for (or the one you selected), without having to use sudo! It ignores all error messages, but does inform you if the file you're looking for can't be found. It prunes out useless system directories such as /proc and /tmp to speed up searching drastically! This is case-insensitive, for example if you type 8VerT.Py, but the file is actually called 8vert.py, it will still find it, but if you make a typo, then the program won't be able to find it. I will look into fixing this, though.
