- ducktective 5y agoDid you know we can make unix tools (like jq) interactive (lik a REPL) using fzf? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28577337 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28577337 Checkout Daniel's other scripts: https://github.com/DanielFGray/fzf-scripts https://github.com/DanielFGray/fzf-scripts
- bloopernova 5y agoYes! I have that one in my ```~/.fzf.zsh```
- vcdimension 5y agoI use it for browsing documentation and code files, e.g. to browse syscall manpages: apropos -s 2 '.*' | fzf --height=100% --preview-window=down:wrap --preview='man -s 2 {1}' --bind='alt-v:execute(man -s 2 {1}),enter:execute(man -s 2 {1})' You can also use it with rlwrap for browsing commandline history of arbitrary REPLs (https://github.com/hanslub42/rlwrap/blob/fb60c9aa7579d6b68f2ea70bcf590818eba9b7c7/filters/handle_hotkeys.py https://github.com/hanslub42/rlwrap/blob/fb60c9aa7579d6b68f2...)
