I've clearly missed something. How is this any better than just executing a script in a well organized directory? Seems like I lose tab completion without significant benefits.
- Tajnymag 4y agosd actually has tab completion and it was one of the reasons the author made it He explains it on his blog: https://ianthehenry.com/posts/sd-my-script-directory/ https://ianthehenry.com/posts/sd-my-script-directory/
- zeroCalories 4y agoAh gotcha. That info is in the repo, just didn't get through my head the first time. Didn't know tab completion could be used like that.
- simonw 4y agoI love this description of the impact of the tool: > Being able to type sd new foo command instead of vim ~/bin/command, typing the shebang, trying to run it, realizing I forgot to make it executable, running it again… it’s made my life slightly better. And because it’s so easy to save snippets for later, I find that I’m much more likely to do it – and a lot less likely to find myself combing through ctrl-r a few months later. > Otherwise, you know, it’s not lifechanging. It won’t help you to appreciate the smaller beauties all around you. You’ll still wake up feeling groggy.
