While [googler](https://github.com/jarun/googler) is extremely popular among cmdline users, in many forums the need of a similar utility for privacy-aware DuckDuckGo came up. [DuckDuckGo Bangs](https://duckduckgo.com/bang) are super-cool too! So here\u0027s `ddgr` for you!\n\nUnlike the web interface, you can specify the number of search results you would like to see per page. It\u0027s more convenient than skimming through 30-odd search results per page. The default interface is carefully designed to use minimum space without sacrificing readability.\n\nA big advantage of `ddgr` over `googler` is DuckDuckGo works over the Tor network.\n\n`ddgr` isn\u0027t affiliated to DuckDuckGo in any way.\n\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https://www.paypal.com",
