pie is a very simple command-line utility for searching files. It displays search results as a scrollable list and allows user-defined commands to be run on a selected item.

pie searchstring [path]

This is equivalent to:

find [path] -iname '*searchstring*' -type f

Example:

pie log /var/log

pie's config file will be created under user's home directory after running pie for the first time.

~/.pie

This file can be customised with new keyboard shortcuts. For example, to bind the key 'v' to vim, add the following line under KeyMappings.

v: vim $file

This will allow opening selected files with vim.
