Severity: wishlist
* Package name : spot
Version : 1.0
Upstream Author : Guillermo Rauch <rauchg@gmail.com>

* License : MIT
Programming Lang: Bash
Description : Tiny file search utility
Tiny ack-style file search utility.
* Short & written in Bash: you can edit it easily to suit your liking.
* Fast. Just find + grep.
* Searches most things by default instead of some known predefined extensions.
* Ignores .git, .svn, devices and binary files.
* All arguments constitute the search text. No need to wrap most searches in double quotes.
* spot is case-insensitive by default. However, if your search term contains an uppercase letter, it becomes sensitive!
* If the first argument contains a slash and is a valid directory, the search is constrained to that particular target.
