Navigating the filesystem and Git with single key presses

1•dharmatech•59m ago
Hey y'all,

I've been messing around with `termux` on Android lately (Linux environment). It's great, but it can get a little tedious typing out Linux commands on there.

So, I've been using this Python script to make common filesystem and git operations available at single key presses:

Here's a couple of video demos to give you an idea of what it's like:

It feels sort of like 'modal editing' in the shell.

If you know of any other utilities like this, would love to hear about them.

The code is very messy and not heavily tested. If you come up with a cool customization, would love to hear about it.
