    I know what both of those are and how to use them. But they are entirely relevant to the thread. Did you comment in the wrong place?

      Not sure how what I write is this confusing to you.

      • Tests don’t necessarily live in paths containing test.
      • Code in paths containing test is not necessarily all tests.
      • cargo expand gives you options for correctly and coherently expanding Rust code, and doesn’t expand tests by default.
      • rg was half a joke since it’s Rust’s grep. You can just pipe cargo expand [OPTIONS] [ITEM] output to vim '+set ft=rust' - or bat --filename t.rs and search from there.

          My post was a showcase of why there is no substitute for knowing your tools properly, and how when you know them properly, you will never have to wait for 5 minutes, let alone 5 years, for anything, because you never used or needed to use an IDE anyway.

          This applies universally. No minimum smartness or specialness scores required.

        Ok cool but how does that help when I’m searching a non-Rust project via the GitHub web search interface? I don’t know why I’d want to search cargo expand output anyway. Using that just to avoid searching tests is a super ugly hack.

          Fair.
