That was a great solution prior to tools like fzf. It's more overhead creating such a script than using the OP's solution.
In ye old days, I would sort/organize bookmarks. Bookmark search solved that problem. And for a long while, Google solved the problem of even having bookmarks.
Same idea here. Why go through the trouble of making a script (and remembering its name), when you can find the command within seconds?
- tomatocracy 3y agoPredictive search/auto completion is incredibly useful. In the browser context, auto completion search from history in the search/URL bar hugely reduces the need to even make bookmarks for top level sites. It's just much easier to type the first few characters of the site I want then hit enter.
- BeetleB 3y agoExactly my point.
