Broot
A better way to navigate directories
Complete Documentation - Installation Instructions - Contributing or Getting Help
Get an overview of a directory, even a big one
Hit br -s
Notice the unlisted?
That's what makes it usable where the old tree
command would produce pages of output.
.gitignore
files are properly dealt with to put unwanted files out of your way.
As you sometimes want to see gitignored files, or hidden ones, you'll soon get used to the alti and alth shortcuts to toggle those visibilities.
(you can ignore them though, see documentation).
Find a directory then cd
to it
type a few letters
Hit altenter and you're back to the terminal in the desired location.
This way, you can navigate to a directory with the minimum amount of keystrokes, even if you don't exactly remember where it is.
Broot is fast and doesn't…
