the --modified-within flag

[aloispichler]

Are there any plans to include a --modified-within or --age flag? To me, this would be helpful in searching files I have modified within the last week, e.g.

Not sure about plans, but you can already do this by combining eza with fd:

fd --changed-within 1w -t f -X eza -l

fd does the filtering and passes everything to a single eza call, so all the usual flags still work. I use it with sorting and relative times:

fd --changed-within 1w -t f -X eza -l --sort=modified --time-style=relative

1w can be 2d, 12h etc, and you can drop -t f if you want directories too. ALso if nothing matches, fd just doesn't run eza, so you won't get a random listing of the current dir.

If you use it a lot you can put it in a function in your shell config:

recent() { fd --changed-within "${1:-1w}" -t f -X eza -l --sort=modified --time-style=relative; }
