Cool project!
What about a syntax like:
Copy all files recursively:
xcv .
Cut all files recursively:
xcv -x .
List all files which will be pasted:
xcv -l
Paste all copied files elsewhere:
xcv -v /elsewhere
It's just that most people will want to do those things by default, and remembering "xcv c -R ." is a bit more mental effort than "xcv ." But maybe that's just a personal preference.
- ilikepi 12y agoThe requirement for adding -R might be useful. Consider the case of accidentally executing `xvc .` from within $HOME. Of course, cp/mv already provide plenty of ways to obliterate your foot so...
- busterc 12y agoThanks. You'll notice I listed some aliases: fsx, fsc, fsv, fsl. I'm not yet sure what most others will want, myself included, as defaults so I avoided baking in naive opinions. Fortunately aliases should allow us all to tweak accordingly. I appreciate the feedback and look forward to hearing from others.
- nthcolumn 12y agoFirst thing I thought too: the options should have a dash. (yes cool project too)
