Oops, I totally forgot considering about Windows. Here are two workarounds for the -iname feature: > rbfind -pD ‘(?i:re)’ > rbfind -p ‘name =~/re/i’ In Version 1.1.1 (now available), the -D option will be case insensitive by default for DOSish platforms. Use the workarounds the other way round if this behaviour is not intended. Color support is turned off on Windows now by default. Use the -c switch to force it on. Sorry, but I cannot test the features as I have no Windows running here… Bertram ---

Colors don’t work on windows currently [have to use win32::console or wirble to colorize on windoze]. The main link given is off [has extra \> ?]. A list in the README/docs of the available variables would be nice. Is there the equivalent of a find --iname feature? here’s my one attempt C:\>rbfind -d \*.rb c:/ruby18/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rbfind-1.1/bin/rbfind:281: (eval):1: compile error (SyntaxError) (eval):1: syntax error, unexpected ‘.’, expecting ‘=’ from c:/ruby18/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rbfind-1.1/lib/rbfind.rb:540:in `call' from c:/ruby18/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rbfind-1.1/lib/rbfind.rb:540:in `do\_level\_depth’ from c:/ruby18/lib/ru Anyway looks good and thanks. -=r
