Did you specify the source I provide?

c:> gem sources
c:> gem install --source http://gems.bertram-scharpf.de rbfind

Colors don’t work on windows currently [have to use win32::console or
wirble to colorize on windoze].

Is there the equivalent of a find --iname feature?

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…

Well I was mostly teasing you for not having deployed it in a way to
make it standard and easy to install :slight_smile:

Some notes:
within the --help output might be nice to have more examples, like how
to actually use the output block.

The main link given is off [has extra > ?].

A list in the README/docs of the available variables would be nice.

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:

Anyway looks good and thanks.
