dotfiles VS sd

If you want to try an alternative script, here are mine. Save them somewhere and replace click-left with the full path to powermenu.sh like you did above.

I like yadm for dotfile management. It's mainly a git wrapper, but it lets you version control your home directory simply. Here are my dotfiles. They're far from perfectly organized, but maybe you can use some of these ideas. I take general notes in README.md, have install notes in Archinstall.md, and manually update my package preferences in .pkg/. Again, this is far from perfect. Someday I'll clean up unused config files and better organize my notes.

Speaking of dotfiles, if you want to look at another user's packages, I log most of mine here, qualitatively separated into lists of how essential I find the package to my system.

I wanted to like sd but it doesn't support my main use case of recursive search/replace. Imagine every time you wanted to grep some files you had to build a find+xargs+rg pipeline... it just takes me out of the flow too much. I'm glad people are posting other options here, I'm looking forward to trying them.

sd

https://github.com/chmln/sd ftw (sed rebuilt in rust, much easier imho) ;-)

sd is a more intuitive alternative to sed, focussing on making find and replace easier - which is all I ever used sed for.

If it's in multiple files? To be honest, I'd just use a terminal and sed (or sd if you want something with a more friendly interface).

I love the idea and I'll try it out, but a heads up in case the author is around: the name sd clashes with another tool [0], which works as an alternative to sed.

I use that one pretty often, so maybe my first managed script will be one which symlinks binaries :)

sd is a find-and-replace CLI, and you can use it as a replacement for sed and awk. It is way more user-friendly and modern. It is also magnitudes faster than sed.
