[Techtalk] anyone know of a simple text viewer?

Miriam, I think you should try Calibre.
It can be improved to suit all your requirements with additional plugins


Fuzzy/vague search and view in order can be done from shell.
This may be more efficient in your use case:
> I have many thousands of small text files that I collect in many subdirectories under my "ideas" directory.
> When I'm writing I often go through them looking for useful material. It
> is a slow, repetitive, and clumsy process. I just wanted something to
> make it easier."

btw, 'Basket Note Pads' is meant for avoiding the situation :)
