fd: Find files with a specific extension.
$ fd --extension txt
try on your machine
The command "fd --extension txt" is using the "fd" tool with the "--extension" option and specifying "txt" as the value for the extension.
The "fd" tool (short for "find") is a command-line utility used for searching files and directories. It provides an alternative to the standard "find" command, offering simplified syntax, improved performance, and advanced features.
The "--extension" option in this command allows you to specify a file extension to search for. In this case, it is set to "txt" which means it will search for files with the ".txt" extension.
So, when you run this command, it will search for and display a list of all files in the current directory and its subdirectories that have the ".txt" extension.
