Highway

A fast pattern matching tool like pt and ag.

Features

• It can search the PATTERN from your source code very fast.
• It can search also the PATTERN as a regular expression.
• It supports UTF-8 and some Japanese encodings (Because I'm Japanese 😋 EUC-JP and Shift_JIS is supported).
• It ignores file patterns form your .gitiginore by default.
