USAGE:
	fnd [FLAGS] <REGEX> [DIRS]...

FLAGS:
	-c, --color      When specified will highlight matches with ansi
					 term color codes. Note that for large regexes or
					 regexes which match a large portion of text this
					 can negatively affect performance.
	-h, --help       Prints help information
	-V, --version    Prints version information

ARGS:
	<REGEX>      The REGEX to search for, defaults to fuzzy finding
	<DIRS>...    Where to search for SEARCH [default: .]

Quick Start

Assuming that your using bash and want to find all rust source files in your ~/Code directory you simply run:

fnd \\.rs\$ ~/Code

That's it! The first argument to fnd is a regex and will be interpreted literally, so make sure you escape dots and the like or else they will match any character.

You can optionally supply multiple directories and fnd will search through all of them. Expanding our example:

fnd \\.mp3\$ ~/Code ~/Documents ~/Music

This will search for mp3's in ~/Code, ~/Documents, and ~/Music.

Note: fnd is always recursive and will default to the current directory.
