Tools for Finding Natural Stuff

General Text Finding

• fzf : Fuzzy Finder
• rg : Ripgrep
• bat : bat superpowered cat program

rzf script

This is a helper script that uses fzf and bat as preview tools for rg

This is the script here in the fzf docs ; I've put this at ~/.local/bin/rzf but anywhere on your path will do.

Natural Specific

• Natural.sublime-syntax
  • This will let bat syntax highlight Natural sourcecode files
  • Put this in $(bat --config-dir)/syntaxes
  • Then do bat cache --build

Examples

Finding Transaction Codes

You want to find them with a word-break either side, so we'll use the Regex \b sequence, which finds zero-width breaks between runs of "word" characters.

e.g.

rzf '\bTCR\b'
