ugrep
Faster grep with an interactive query UI
Ugrep is a ultra fast searcher of file systems, text and binary files, source code, archives, compressed files, documents, and more.
While still being compatible with the standard GNU/BSD grep command-line options, ugrep supports fuzzy search as well as structured and (adjustable) colored output, piped through "less" for pagination. An interactive query UI allows refinement and has a built-in help (press F1). Ugrep implements multi-threaded and other techniques to speed up search, pattern-matching and decompression. Many pre-defined regexps ease searching e.g. C typdefs or XML attributes. Results can be output in several structured or self-defined formats.
