hlocate.fish: find in home directoryΒΆ
locate
will not work if your home directory is encrypted. I use this instead:
function hlocate
find ~ | grep -e $argv[1] | sed "s|^$HOME|\~|"
end
Now:
bgeron@machine ~> hlocate test1234
~/tmp/test1234.txt
bgeron@machine ~>
This is a Fish script, but it should be easy to convert to bash syntax.
