# fd

[fd](https://github.com/sharkdp/fd) is a user friendly replacement for [find](http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/find.1.html).

* How to include hidden files and directories for searches?

  ```bash
  fd 'ipa.*.crt' ~/ -H
  ```
* Uses smartcase by default, which means if the search term is in lowercase, the search is done in case-insensitive manner. But if the search term contains Capital letters the search is done in a case-sensitive manner.
* Find files with a specific extension:

  ```bash
  fd --extension txt
  ```
* Open a file found via `fd`,

  ```bash
  fd 'Math.*.pdf' -x open
  ```

  Use `-x` flag for executing a command.
