flat -1 is no option since I have massive amounts of files (on a hdd) and I can not find another solution for a recursive search inside ranger.
Can’t you just use find from ranger? You can execute shell commands with ! from it.
! find . ...
That’s an idea. With
:shell -p find . -iname %%space
it is possible to do that of some sort. But the thing is that the output is not a selectable list (like a directory in ranger) but more a generic pager like when using less. I would have to remember the path and manually move there which is quite annoying.
But while fiddling with this I stumbled upon a reasonable, still not perfect, solution: a plugin to integrate fd into ranger
I may not have a list of all findings like I would have with chaining flat and filter, but I can at least deep search and jump through the results

I put this command into my commands.py and nothing happened. I put at the bottom of the file, is that ok? Also i am running this on a mac in terminal view. Any ideas on how to get this to work? Thanks!
