<p>If you use the <a href="https://github.com/abo-abo/swiper">Ivy/Swiper/Counsel</a> package, you know that are a lot of ways to do searches. So many that it can hard to remember what they all are and how to invoke them. Fortunately, Yuri Tricys has come to the rescue with <a href="https://readingworldmagazine.com/emacs/2021-11-07-emacs-how-to-find-just-about-anything-on-your-computer-1/">a hydra for searching</a>.</p>
<p>Tricys is planning some follow on posts that describe a few of the functions and packages that his hydra uses. He also has a separate section for some programs to use in the Windows environment.</p>
<p>Its worth taking look at his hydra if only to get some ideas for the searches you may want to make. I agree with Tricys that hydras are the ideal solution for this sort of thing. Theyre easy to implement even for someone who doesnt know Elisp. That makes them a great way for any user to create and manage their own menuing system. Theres <a href="https://github.com/abo-abo/hydra">extensive documentation for hydras</a> at the packages Git repository so theyre accessible to everyone.</p>
