File this under #shell #functions I should have written years ago:
function grepc {
#Do a grep -c, but skipping files with no results
grep -c "$@" |grep -v ':0$'
}
Amin, minor deity of the legume realmOh, didn't know about -c. I usually just pipe to wc -l I guess.
-c, -l, -h, -H, and -q are my favorite #grep flags. :D
Huh, that almost became a [Marcel Duchamp] reference. 😅
I just use -v and -E

Face it... I'm an unpopular-opinion neckbeard level boss. XD

@thedoctor @rl_dane @amin @mirabilos At least bash and zsh is comparable to grep ripgrep, as zsh is just a strictly better bash ;)
@sotolf @thedoctor @rl_dane @mirabilos
Mm, not really though? ripgrep is meant for bulk grepping of files
@amin @thedoctor @rl_dane @mirabilos I think I had it installed, I just never remembered to use it :p
@sotolf @thedoctor @rl_dane @mirabilos
I mostly just use it to run rg TODO and see all the spots in a codebase I marked as still needing work.
@amin @thedoctor @rl_dane @mirabilos I don't think I have anything big enough to warrant that, the biggest thing I have made is probably less than 5k lines of code, and nicely compartmentalised :p also stupid simple.
@sotolf @thedoctor @rl_dane @mirabilos
Well more it's for "this function works for now but doesn't handle an edge case; I'll mark it so I remember to come back later". Something of a to-do list for edge case stuff.
@amin @thedoctor @rl_dane @mirabilos Ah yeah, I'm not the main person using these things, so mostly when something comes in they have just gotten an error, or they remember what they did, so I redo the thing, and read logs, they mostly point me to what is broken :p
