v7.3.0 · 1y+
view on github

Features

  • New --exec-batch <cmd>/-X <cmd> option for batch execution of commands, see #360 (@kimsnj). This allows you to do things like:
    fd … -X vim  # open all search results in vim (or any other editor)
    fd … -X ls -l  # view detailed stats about the search results with 'ls'
    fd -e svg -X inkscape  # open all SVG files in Inkscape
    
  • Support for 24-bit color codes (when specified via LS_COLORS) as well as different font styles (bold, italic, underline).

Changes

  • A few performance improvements, in particular when printing lots of colorized results to the console, see #370
  • The LS_COLORS handling has been "outsourced" to a separate crate (https://github.com/sharkdp/lscolors) that is now being used by other tools as well: fselect, lsd. For details, see #363.

Other

  • fd will be available in Ubuntu Disco DIngo (19.04), see #373 (@sylvestre)
  • This release should come with a static ARM binary (arm-unknown-linux-musleabihf), see #320 (@duncanfinney)
  • Various documentation improvements, see #389
