Usage

This is a cli program, which means you need to execute it by typing searcher_txt in a terminal

The arguments needed are the query and filename. You can also add optional arguments like case sensitivity or verbose output. Example for searching "potato" in file.txt with no case sensitivity on windows :

searcher_txt potato file.txt

If you want your search to be case-sensitive :

searcher_txt potato file.txt --case

If you want to search recursively, print the whole file, be case-sensitive and verbose,

searcher_txt potato folder/ -cvwr

Available arguments : --case/-c --verbose/-v --whole/-w --recurse/-r --help/-h --version/-V
