the need for an index file

[navjack]

i LOVE this system... at least the idea of it. i use Everything on my windows box and this is quite close to what Everything does.

i had to make a Channel for searching all my external drives and network drives, like Everything does.

[metadata]
name = "volumes"
description = "Search every mounted volume on macOS"

[source]
command = ["fd . -t f -t d /Volumes", "fd . -t f -t d -H /Volumes"]

[preview]
command = "bat -n --color=always '{}'"
env     = { BAT_THEME = "ansi" }

but this is severely hampered by the fact that as far as i can tell you don't use a local index db. Everything uses one and thats what makes it so great. if something goes away, gets disconnected, it can still be found in the search if ur lucky! sometimes even the contents of text files. it makes searching slower drives and NAS shares way better. consider that for the future of this project. i like what i see here!
