When looking for files on the desktop, you may often rely on the search feature of your favourite file manager. The conventional searching approach is to apply an exact search, so that only files or directory that are a perfect match to the search string are displayed. A fuzzy search, on the other hand, performs an approximate search, and instead of identifying exact matches, displays matching results with each keystroke.
The fzf utility identifies itself as a general-purpose fuzzy finder. Released under the MIT License, the cross-platform tools can be used across all flavours of Linux.
