macOS Command-Line Tools You Might Not Know About
I find it so annoying that these only work with plain text and RTF. On X11 there is `xclip`[0] and on Wayland there is `wl-clipboard`[1] both of which support binary file formats either through parsing the header or explicitly setting the MIME type.
This means you can do things like copy an image from the terminal and paste it into a graphical program like a browser or chat client and vice-versa. Also can be very useful in shell scripts for desktop automation.
The workaround on MacOS is to use AppleScript via `osascript` to `set the clipboard to...`.

shcopy: a command line utility that copies content from anywhere, locally, remotely, over SSH...
This reminds me of xclip.

Best program to paste premade text from a file to where the cursor is on a desktop environment
I haven't used it in a while but xclip is a thing for X11 and you can create your own keyboard shortcuts and present a window with zenity or something.

clipboard: error: Error: target STRING not available
This is apparently an issue with xclip, not Neovim: https://github.com/astrand/xclip/issues/38

Do you find yourself often deleting a ":wq<newline>" from nano before pressing <ctrl>-X?
Lately I've become a big fan of Micro. It's as portable as Nano. By default it uses the same shortcuts as typical desktop programs: Ctrl-S for save, Ctrl-Q for quit, Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V for copy/paste, etc. It integrates well with Linux desktops' clipboards by optionally using xclip. Just like Nano, it can have multiple files open for easy copy/pasting between files. But the best thing of all is that its scripting/plugin system is plain old Lua 5.1.

Yazi: Fast terminal file manager based on async I/O
I've tried using LF in the past, but it didn't stick. Will definitely give this a go, as I'm trying to move to an pure terminal workflow as closely as possible.

What are the best open source tools to easily navigate directories from the command line?
Hi. fff, lf, clifm Won't say they're best or not, rather interesting and maybe worth looking at. Looked up for the z in termux's repos and it's called "zoxide" there.
- Switching from unix - Is there a plugin or something similar to Ranger or NNN?
- NvimTree vs NeoTree
-
LF filemanager is awesome - so is zsh, which I want to migrate to. But in bash and fish, you can make a function so when quitting LF, you end up in the dir you were in in LF. can't find something similar for zsh
in the Github page for lf under etc, you can find instruction for making such a function for bash and fish.

What is the process of requesting for a package to be added to the official repos?
I recently discovered an amazing terminal file manager (lf). The package is available for most mainstream distros but not for openSUSE.

What are your programs missing from the official Fedora repos?
For me, the main program missing is "lf" the ranger inspired terminal file manager. 5000 stars on Github, packaged in the official repos for basically anything under the sun except Fedora and a key part in my day-to-day workflow. https://github.com/gokcehan/lf
