nobody would ever directly copy and execute any "exact flags" for any command based on a query string, surely this is not what you are suggesting?
I can get on board with a tool that's like tldr but broader-scoped, returning sets of commands that you could choose to run based on input query, but isn't this just claude?
- anon7000 1y agoThat’s exactly what this is though, it’s giving you the precise “incantation” you need based on what you’re trying to do. Like “list 20 biggest files in current directory”
- kiitos 1y agohuh? "list 20 biggest files in the current directory" is a search query, or a llm prompt input, it's not any kind of precise incantation.. ? I mean if greppers is just translating queries like that to related command-calls, that's fine but bizarre and nothing that would require a community-contribution-based database of mappings, that's just a search engine and/or llm mapping problem...
- shellsteady 1y agowell said that’s exactly the spirit of greppers — not trying to guess like an llm, just surfacing the ready-to-run incantations people keep re-googling.
