    Hey. I can do regex. It’s specifically grep I have beef with. I never know off the top of my head how to invoke it. Is it -e? -r? -i? man grep? More like, man, get grep the hell outta here!

      now listen, you might think gnu tools are offensively inconsistent, and to that I can only say

      find(1)

        find(1)? You better find(1) some other place to be, buster. In this house, we use the file explorer search bar

        If I start using this and add grep functionality to my day-to-day life, I can’t complain about not knowing how to invoke grep in good conscience, dawg. I can’t hold my shitposting back like that, dawg!

        jk that looks useful. Thanks!

          The cheatsheet and tealdeer projects are awesome. It’s one of my (many) favorite things about the user experience honestly. Really grateful for those projects
