I just discovered bhoogle
a few years too late and it just doesn’t get enough love
@haskell #programming It’s a TUI wrapper for hoogle done right. @andrevdm 's blog post: https://www.andrevdm.com/posts/2022-09-07-bhoogle.html
@haskell @balsoft yeah “done right” was maybe somewhat generous. It’s apparently meant to be more of a pet/toy project, so there’s no multithreading indeed. I believe the author is willing to accept PRs on the matter
Would be so cool to have something like this for Nix (with appropriate accommodations for packages and NixOS modules, and some Flake search too).
(Actually, bhoogle is stuttering a lot with some queries - looks like the TUI rendering and search happen in a single thread. Not cool.)
Thanks for explaining what it is without making us click something. Using @hoogle on Freenode #haskell is all the TUI I need ;).
Wait, is #haskell still on Freenode? I thought they migrated to libera.chat during the Freenode collapse
Sorry, I meant libera. Forgot about the switch.
