Use-case: While not a vogue technology, VB is still a common file type taught in many university settings and used in many commercial settings. Working with VB files out-of-the-box would provide a lot of value to `ripgrep` users.
Example: I'm working on converting a legacy app to a modern infrastructure. The legacy app mixes CS and VB files liberally, so I always need to check both. For portability, it would be nice to just be able to ask for `-tcs -tvb` without registering with `--type-add` first.
Tests: I didn't notice any coverage aimed at this part of the code, but if I'm mistaken I'll amend the PR.
For example, when only a single file (or stdin) is being searched, then we
should be able to print directly to the terminal instead of intermediate
buffers. (The buffers are only necessary for parallelism.)
Closes#4.
We do this by avoiding using a RegexSet (*sigh*). In particular, file
type matching has much simpler semantics than gitignore files, so we don't
actually need to care which file type matched. Therefore, we can get away
with a single regex with a giant alternation.
- Refactored interaction between CLI args and rest of xrep.
- Filling in a lot more options, including file type filtering.
- Fixing some bugs in globbing/ignoring.
- More documentation.
