lookfor is a simple command line tool to find things: files, directories, and files by extension. lookfor consists of only two commands (besides --version and --help), and aims to replace two Unix commands by being simpler to use and return results faster.
pip install lookfor1
lf <flag> <file/ext>
--file, -f file/dir searches for file/dir and prints all paths. Starts in cwd.
--ext, -e extension searches for extension and prints all paths. Starts in cwd.
--version, -V prints version info.
--help, -h prints usage
