Blog: Terminal file managers and my Vifm setup
I've documented some really cool things that vifm can do: https://github.com/sitaramc/notes/blob/master/vifm.mkd
-
Prevent Thunar from writing lines to config file, or alternatively make git ignore certain lines
So I wrote https://github.com/sitaramc/notes/blob/master/dac -- 30 lines of shell plus maybe another 30 or 40 of comments, and it does everything I want in a dotfile manager.
-
What tools/methods do you use to track/journal all changes to your (desktop) system?
All this is painlessly taken care of by https://github.com/sitaramc/notes/blob/master/dac (documentation: https://github.com/sitaramc/notes/blob/master/dac.mkd)
-
ncdu - ncurses disk usage - see which directories and files are hogging the most space
If you have fzf installed, grab https://github.com/sitaramc/notes/blob/master/try, and run try dust. Then start typing -t jpg (for example). Then backspace over the jpg and change it to png. Or use some other options.
-
what is the easiest way to backup your config files?
I hesitate to nominate any of them because (a) there are dozens or even hundreds of them and (b) I don't like any of them; I wrote my own because I needed a "hold" feature that no one had (i.e., when propagating changes to the repo, I want to hold back some parts of the change; https://github.com/sitaramc/notes/blob/master/dac.mkd explains better if you're interested
-
Do you use VIFM?
For those of you who are curious, https://github.com/sitaramc/notes/blob/master/vifm.mkd is my part "review" and part "tips and tricks" on vifm.
-
What tools / utilities have you written that you use regularly?
Most of my tools are in bash or perl, most of them less than 100 lines of code, (most of them are less than 200 even with comments). https://github.com/sitaramc/notes has all of them (terrible name for a repo full of tools I know; sorry!)

Seeking a terminal file manager
Absolutely vifm. My notes+tips/tricks on this at https://github.com/sitaramc/notes/blob/master/vifm.mkd
-
Should I use vim or neovim?
https://github.com/sitaramc/notes/blob/master/dac.mkd for documentation, https://github.com/sitaramc/notes/blob/master/dac.mkd for code, if you're interested.
-
difference between terminal file managers?
if you're a vim user, you can't go wrong with vifm. My take on vifm is here: https://github.com/sitaramc/notes/blob/master/vifm.mkd -- can't hurt to give it a read (it's a wee bit outdated but not much; probably only the last section needs to be updated)

Directory navigation on Helix
If you want a file full browser experience choose nnn: https://github.com/jarun/nnn . If you have a desktop file for Helix you can use the Gnome Files program to make all your programming language files open in Helix.
-
Help compiling a package with a compiler flag from an official Debian source
The other option is to just download the static version https://github.com/jarun/nnn/releases/download/v4.9/nnn-nerd-static-4.9.x86_64.tar.gz and overwrite the Debian executable at /usr/bin/nnn, but this seems a bit hacky, agreed?

- Ytree; a Unix Filemanager
-
How do I change default image and video interpreter program through environment variables for nnn file manager ? (Asking herre bc r/linuxquestions doesnt allow posts)
You can get the 'default' nuke plugin script from https://github.com/jarun/nnn/blob/master/plugins/nuke and customize it if you need to. You define files by extension or mime type and set default and fallback apps to be opened with.
-
What are the best open source tools to easily navigate directories from the command line?
I like nnn ( n3 ).
-
Can't figure out how to change icon theme in nnn
The icon-theme seems to be driven by your terminal font as detailed in `src/icons-in-terminal.h & icons.h, and the choice of "terminal-icon vs nerd-fonts vs emoji" appear to be hard-wired at compile-time rather than at run-time.

What's a really niche tool you use that you can't live without?
