Sift
CLI full-text search for local files. Like grep but Googlier.
Status
Alpha. Works but doesn't do any text analysis or filtering.
Usage
sift "search terms" dir1/dir2
-r to search recursively through contained directories (like grep's -r)
Why
I wanted to Google my ~/journal dir without revealing my innermost secrets to the NSA via GDrive search. Might work for you if you have heaps upon heaps of .txt and .md files like me.
