I always wonder why I want to run something I can accomplish within an IDE through another tool.

What's the advantage against running find in files from my editor?

If it's just searching through a single project inside an IDE, I agree with you.

But I have a Livegrep instance setup to index all 1000 repos into a single search space and it's still nigh instantaneous.
