Usage

Command Line

Let's start with a few simple examples.

If you want to find all .c files recursively from the current directory:

rf *.c

rf uses fnmatch/PathMatchSpecA so all the usual glob rules apply. You can also use substring matching instead, something like:

rf -s hello

This would match any files with 'hello' anywhere in the name. Although this is less flexible, it can potentially make things easier and faster depending on the particular use case.
