rawhide (rh) lets you search for files on the command line using expressions and user-defined functions in a mini-language inspired by C.
It’s like find, but more fun to use. Search criteria can be very readable and self-explanatory and/or very concise and typeable, and you can create your own lexicon of search terms. The output can include lots of detail, like ls.
An rh expression is a C-like expression that can call user-defined functions. These expressions can contain all of C’s conditional, logical, relational, equality, arithmetic, and bit operators.
There is a default standard library of functions to start with. It provides a high-level interface to the built-in symbols mentioned above, and makes rh easy to use.
This is free and open source software.
