ranger VS fzf

As a Vim enthusiast, I always wanted to replicate my daily workflow based on keymappings and completely avoid using the mouse. I missed the functionality offered by tools like ranger or lf in Vifm, but I didn't want to learn a whole new set of keyboard shortcuts. I watched several YouTube videos trying to recreate this setup, but none quite hit the mark. The project that inspired this work didn't fully meet its intended functionality.

Would a commander type TUI work for you?

There's also superfile and broot, but personally I feel like they try to do a little too much, might work for you though:

Came to post zoxide. Also if you use `ranger`[1] (vim inspired file manager) then you might like to add the `ranger-zoxide` plugin[2].

This looks cool, though I already use https://github.com/ranger/ranger for this.

This feature is rarely seen in Linux file managers. I would recommend the CLI file manager ranger. If you need a GUI tool, you should have a look at pantheon files, the file manager of ElementaryOS.

Someone opened an issue about this. Might want to follow that.

Hi! I am using ranger file manager terminal as its best through all i had used, but i have a weird problem and i want to ask you maybe you know how to solve it because my knowledge have limits on this topic even though i researched a bit.

How about ranger

Install "fzf" [0] and set it up to be used with control+r, there's no going back. You get as a bonus the chance to use fzf in a lot of other places :)

I guess that more advance tool would be "atuin" [1], but it is too much for my use case.

FZF is a command line fuzzy finder. It's an incredibly powerful tool that you can use (at its simplest) to filter lists as you type.

fzf (fuzzy finder)

fzf

FZF (Fuzzy finder) is a command-line application that allows you to turn any list into an interactive menu with support for awesome fuzzy search, which you can read more about here.

So you'll need fzf installed for this example to do anything interesting.

Combining this with fzf, you can have a nice quick shortcut to quickly pick a server to connect to into.

fzf (https://github.com/junegunn/fzf) is really great. Very useful for providing a quick and easy user interface. For example, I use it to fuzzy find inside git branches to have an "improved checkout". I do that since at work branches are usually named "-", it's faster to search for the issue number.

The fzf repo has a guide/example code for ripgrep integration that works pretty well.
