Hello Roland,
Thank you for your very kind answer. I installed glimpse, set the search tool to agrep and now have blazing fast results. I'd see this as configuration problem and not as a wishlist item. But a note in the man page would be nice; telling people to install glimpse when searching is slow. -- Regards/Mit freundlichen Grüßen Christian Weiske -=≡ Geeking around in the name of science since 1982 ≡=-
