If you ever give ripgrep a go, stumble over something and are inclined to: please post a Discussion question[1]. "beginner" or "stupid" questions are welcome. If you can show me what you know works with grep, for example, and are curious about an equivalent rg command, that could be a good question. I might be able to give you some "fundamental" answers to it that let you reason about the tools more from first principles, but on your terms.
