bhoogle is a simple terminal GUI wrapper over hoogle.

Make sure you have a local hoogle database created
If you don't already, then
1. Install hoogle (e.g. stack install hoogle or cabal install hoogle)
2. Generate the default database (hoogle generate)

Enter a search in the "type" edit box
Press enter to search: focus goes directly to the results list
Or press tab to search and focus will go to the "text" edit box
You can then filter the results by typing in the "text" edit box, any result containing the sub-string typed will be shown
Navigate the results by using arrow or vi (hjkl) keys
Pressing 's' in the results list will toggle the sort order
Escape to exit
Search-ahead is enable for any type search longer than ~3 characters

Note that the version described in the blog is on the blog branch.
