Access Windows Search from Emacs.
- Put winsearch.el into your load path.
adoquery.exe is a simple ADO access wrapper. Included in this repository, but you can also build your own. (see:https://github.com/misohena/adoquery)(adoquery.exe is no longer needed, powershell is needed instead) - Put
(require 'winsearch)into your init.el
If you use ivy/counsel, you can use counsel-winsearch defined in winsearch-counsel.el.
