if someone wants a pure bash+fzf+ripgrep solution with slightly different behaviour, take a look at https://github.com/xkcd386at/scripts/blob/master/vgc

need help implementing s feature into a script
I uploaded something I've been using off and on: https://github.com/xkcd386at/scripts/blob/master/rfync
So... https://github.com/xkcd386at/scripts/blob/master/fclone (and yes the program name is probably even less imaginative than rfync -- suggestions welcome)

A Practical Guide to fzf: Building a File Explorer
meanwhile, speaking of file managers using fzf, take a look at https://github.com/xkcd386at/scripts/blob/master/fzfm
- Clipboard - cut, copy and paste anything in the terminal!

the maddening truth of using Qubes
My solution to that is: https://github.com/xkcd386at/scripts/blob/master/usff -- run firefox under different Unix userids. This way I only have to watch for issues that cause privilege escalation (i.e., an exploit that gives root access). These are pretty rare in general, but even more so if the attackers access is only via a browser

Vim minimalism
not "on-topic" for vim per se, but https://github.com/xkcd386at/scripts/blob/master/fzfm and https://github.com/xkcd386at/scripts/blob/master/laziercli are examples of how far I have taken fzf (not fzf within vim, but fzf at the command line)

What file manager do you use?
(just by the way, my somewhat tongue-in-cheek response to someone who asked a hypothetical question once: https://github.com/xkcd386at/scripts/blob/master/fzfm)

procmux - a TUI utility for running multiple commands in parallel in easily switchable terminals
those were the kind off questions that led me to create https://github.com/xkcd386at/scripts/blob/master/frc :)

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.

The Command Line File Manager 1.9 (Sharptooth) is out!
Hi u/New_Improvement_3088. There's currently a Github action successfully building clifm for MacOS, but I cannot test it myself.

I'm writing a file manager in pure BASH
I imagine fff marks many files, handles multi-file creation/deletion, moving, copying, etc. This file manager will only be made to mark a single file which is just the last file/directory you interacted with. If you need a batch file editor or something like that, this definitely will never compete there. I just want it to be super minimal, clean and efficent. I'm kind of a bloat freak; On my system wget isn't even allowed. Btw this is the best CLI/TUI file manager I know of CliFM
- Is there a CLI tool that allows quick changing of directorys?
